Katsuya (The Tonkatsu specialist) restaurant

Tried their decadent tonkatsu as well. It was deep fried and cut into small cubes for the perfect, luxurious bite. One bite and you can really appreciate how rich and tender the Wagyu is, especially when it melts in your mouth. Honestly - get this if you’re willing to spend but also share this with someone because one portion of this richness was overwhelming for me😂 at certain points I felt like the beef was slightly too undercooked to my liking, but I guess that was what preserves the tenderness. Recommend to try if you’re all things Wagyu and want to have a taste of something different.

Have honestly heard many raving reviews about how well executed the tonkatsu at Katsuya is - after all that’s what they specialise in. The restaurant clearly prides itself on their process - both cooking and consuming of their tonkatsu, whereby there are their special menu you could preorder from and clear instructions on how one should consume the tonkatsu by the table. The Rosu ad they claimed, had a slight amount of fat with the meat to give it the slight juiciness - though I somehow was hoping for more juiciness. That being said, despite it being fried, I did not think that it was too oily. So that made it a great accompaniment with the free flow rice and cabbage salad that they serve.

A cold tofu dish with aburi salmon. Really enjoyed this dish as an appetiser to kick off the very heavy and fried meal. It was light and the aburi salmon was well seared, which gave a very nice added texture to the silky tofu.
