If there is one thing I can never resist, even when on a "diet", it would have to be deep fried food. Whether chicken wings or french fries, as long as its fried and crispy, I'm all over it. (unfortunately for my waistline and cholesterol level) So when I'm in the mood for some deep fried comfort food, and also with some extra cash to spare, I like to enjoy Tonkatsu, which is fried breaded pork, and the best outlet in my opinion would have to be Tonkichi. After all, it specialises in Tonkatsu so
So when I'm in the mood for some deep fried comfort food, and also with some extra cash to spare, I like to enjoy Tonkatsu, which is fried breaded pork, and the best outlet in my opinion would have to be Tonkichi. After all, it specialises in Tonkatsu so it better be pretty damn good.
I went to the outlet at Shaw Tower, which is convenient if you plan to catch a movie at the newly renovated Shaw theatres beforehand. Upon the recommendation of the waiter, I tried a new set "Kasane Katsu Set" which was deep fried layered sliced pork loin with chef's special sauce and served with rice, chawanmushi, appetizer and miso soup. ($30) Of course, the highlight of the meal was the pork, which was fried to perfection, all crispy and hot. The best part would have to be the meat, which remained juicy and tender despite being deep fried. The fat within the meat also made the meat all the more sinful and delicious. The rest of the sides were average, typical of Japanese restaurants so the meat is always the thing that keeps me coming back for more! don't forget to dip the meat into the "special sauce" but it is still delicious on its own,
