Wakayama, Japan｜Totchan

■Late April 2022 Lunch visit Order Tocchan Gozen (1280 yen)! A full course with mackerel, tempura, and sashimi? It's a lunch. The sashimi is not apologetic, but there is a decent amount. You can get one refill of rice, and you can get your own coffee after the meal♪ Shopkeeper while busy? The man served us very politely, and it was very comfortable! On the cheap side, it might be the daily lunch special for 900 yen. I took a quick peek, and it looked like there was a lot of it! ■Second lunch visit in early July 2022 Today's daily special was seafood yukhoe, so I decided on this one immediately! Even though it's a rice bowl menu for 900 yen, it comes with a small side dish, tempura, coffee after the meal (self-service), and a snack (self-service). It was as voluminous and delicious as ever! The shop owner also has short blonde hair and is a bit old-fashioned. Sorry, but I'm really low! He's a really good person♪ This is a store you are sure to visit! ■3rd 2023/4 Lunch visit I wasn't sure if I wanted Tocchan Gozen, so I went for the daily lunch special.

2022/11/21 First visit, first takeout, ordered tuna cutlet bento and shrimp chili bento, made in about 10 minutes. The tuna cutlet is healthy and delicious with fine bread crumbs. Bento was discounted by 50 yen in commemoration of the 4th anniversary. It is said to be closed irregularly. The shop had a good atmosphere.

I had the extra-thick tonkatsu set meal. In an izakaya where fish is the main dish, I ordered tonkatsu, which tends to be in the shadows, and if it was delicious, I predicted that everything else would be delicious. The result was absolutely delicious. I've been to many different tonkatsu restaurants, but this one is the best. Honest surprise. The rosé-colored tonkatsu is also fried, and while it retains a firm texture, it has a moist texture without any dryness. You can choose tonkatsu sauce, demiglace sauce, and ponzu sauce. The ponzu is also eaten on a separate plate instead of being sprinkled over the tonkatsu, so the crispy batter will not disappear until the end. The batter is not a coarsely ground cut, but a thin type like the kushikatsu batter. The crunchy texture and appearance are inferior, but this one allows you to feel the taste of the ingredients more. To tell you the truth, I don't really like tonkatsu that much, but I could feel the aftertaste of the deliciousness after eating it. The customer service was good, and I definitely recommend this shop.
