This Kurobuta pork cutlet specialty store is about a 10-minute walk from Fukuoka Tenjin Minami Station. Let me start with the conclusion: it’s delicious! Please go eat it! This is the MVP of my trip to Fukuoka!
We arrived around 5:30 on a Monday night, and the restaurant was only half full. However, because it takes time to fry the pork chops, it took us about 15 minutes to get our meals after we ordered them.
In addition to the Japanese menu, the store also has a Korean menu (therefore there were quite a lot of Korean customers, and half of the people dining around that day were Koreans), but there was no Chinese menu, so we casually ordered two different ones: Kurobuta Toru ㄧスかつGozen ¥2,000, Kurobuta thick cut ロㄧスかつGozen (limited edition) ¥2,400
The parts of these two models are all tenderloin. The meat content of Kurobuta Tetsuya Gozen is 200g, and the meat of Kurobuta Thick-cut Gozen is 240g. In fact, there is not much difference in the taste between the two. The difference should be the thickness. The thickness of the cut is 1.5-2 times that of the other cut. The meat is relatively rare and you can see that the center part of the meat is beautifully pink.
This fried pork cutlet doesn't look like much, but the moment I bit into it, my eyes immediately widened. This fried pork cutlet is amazing! The outer skin is very crispy, but the meat is super soft and tender, not dry at all, and the gravy is perfectly locked inside, which is indescribably perfect!
There are different ways to eat fried pork cutlets: plain, with salt, pork cutlet sauce, mustard and clear soy sauce, squeeze of lemon juice, etc.
Every way you eat it is delicious! I personally recommend salt and wasabi soy sauce~
And Japan is really good at cooking rice. It’s all rice, but their rice makes people take one bite after another, but they can’t bear to finish it.
The miso soup is not sloppy either, there are many small pieces of pork in it, it’s delicious~
Overall, this tonkatsu dinner should be ranked first in my trip to Fukuoka. I think it’s great for the taste and the price! Will definitely recommend it to friends traveling to Fukuoka!
