[Osaka/Nihonbashi] A tonkatsu restaurant produced by "Shunsai Tentsuchiya"

🥢 Tonkatsu Minato
📍 Osaka Nihonbashi (9-minute walk from Nihonbashi Station)

This time, I ordered the
Rose & Fillet Mix Set Meal Basic (3,500 yen)
📝

A luxurious mix set meal featuring 150g of loin and 60g of fillet all in one meal. ✨️
The basic set allows you to compare different brand-name pork.

The rice, cabbage, and pork soup are free to refill up to two times, which is a nice bonus. 💡

This tonkatsu is slowly cooked using a unique low-temperature cooking method, so it takes a little time to be served, but the result is exceptional!
Watching the frying process from across the counter is a lively experience, and it's fun to wait. ☺️

First up, the loin.
The brand on this day was "Iwanaka SPF."
This cut of meat is similar to rib-eye, with a surprisingly clear, sweet, and elegant fat that's not too heavy.
It was juicy, savory, and well-balanced.
When you lift it with your chopsticks, the juices ooze from the light, fluffy batter, making it a delicious dish that goes perfectly with rice. ✨️

The fillet is made with "Ajirei Pork."
The meat is incredibly tender with a fine texture, and a refined sweetness spreads throughout your mouth.
The meat is light and lean, yet packed with flavor, and every bite is filled with depth.💕

Minato is unique in that it allows you to enjoy the unique characteristics of each brand.
The charm of this set meal is being able to compare the juiciness of the loin and the elegance of the fillet all at once.🥰

There are also plenty of condiments and sauces!
Salt and wasabi further enhance the sweetness of the meat, and the sauce with mustard goes perfectly with rice.✨️

The cabbage dressing comes in two varieties: onion and sesame. The sesame dressing is particularly creamy and fragrant, making it my favorite.🥰
It was refreshing and perfect as a palate cleanser between fried foods.

I also love that the set includes a hearty pork miso soup instead of miso soup. 💕
They change the brand of pork every day, so discovering the different flavors of the day is one of the joys of the day.

The clean, stylish interior with L-shaped counter seating creates a relaxed atmosphere.

They have many international customers, and seem to be popular with tourists as well. ☺️
