Shinjuku City, Tokyo, Japan｜Tonkatsu Kenshin

[Tokyo: Kagurazaka/Tonkatsu Kenshin] I got one on Kagurazaka Main Street. A hidden tonkatsu specialty store located on Karukozaka. The owner who became independent from Takadanobaba's famous restaurant "Narikura" will open a new store in Kagurazaka's Karukozaka in March 2023! ! I'm happy to have another famous restaurant near my home. . It's very sad that Baba no Narikura has disappeared, but the fluffy pork cutlet is still alive and well in Kagurazaka! It's already popular, but the line isn't so long that you can't wait at all! There were about 2 groups waiting ♪ 《order》-------------------------------- *Rib roast cutlet 4,500 yen --------------------------------------------- Slowly and carefully fried at a low temperature using a special manufacturing method. With low sugar content bread crumbs and beautiful lard, A white tonkatsu with a unique visual is completed! The batter is fried slowly and slowly at a low temperature. Really fluffy and light. This may be the first time I've used the expression "melting in the batter." I'm a person who likes fatty pork cutlet. The rib roast was a big winner. If you don't like fatty meat, we recommend the fillet or regular loin! It seems that they are also particular about the rice, pork soup, and pickles that play a supporting role! was delicious. . It's a little pricey, but it's worth it! !

[Kagurazaka] “Tonkatsu Kenshin” The owner became independent from "Seizo" in Asagaya, which is famous as one of Japan's leading tonkatsu restaurants. It is characterized by its white robe. On this day, I had a set meal of two Koshino Golden Pork Fillet Cutlets. There are two types of salt and sauce. Comes with white rice, pork soup, and oshinko. There is an image that fillet cutlet is a little hard and dry due to the lack of fat, but the fillet cutlet here has a very soft and moist texture without feeling any of that. It seems that it takes time to heat up with low-speed cooking. It's completely different from the tonkatsu I've eaten so far...!! The thin batter made of bread crumbs and lard is also quite unique as it gently wraps around the fillet. I was honestly impressed by how delicious fillet cutlet is! The pork soup with its sweet pork fat is also extremely delicious. When I go to a tonkatsu restaurant for the first time, I tend to order the loin, but the rabbit and horn fillet tonkatsu is exquisite. The owner recommends the fillet, so if you come here, please order the fillet. The concept will change!

It appears that the owner of Tonkatsu Narikura (a store run by Seizo's disciples after he moved) opened an independent tonkatsu restaurant in Kagurazaka. I had visited Seizo several times when I was a student, and the white robes had a nostalgic look and taste. Once again, I was impressed by the crispness of the batter. It's great because you can taste the sweetness of the pork fat. Personally, I recommend eating the rice with the falling batter on top, which may be a little mean, but it's delicious and allows you to enjoy it till the end. I had the loin, and my wife had the fillet, which also looked delicious. Delicious meat is different from filling your stomach even though it weighs only 120g. Also, the pickles were leaf-based, so I was able to eat them myself. (When I was working with Narizo, it was cucumbers? It was an ingredient I didn't like.) Also, does the ginger in the pork soup have a good effect? It tasted like that. I would like to repeat it.
