I was thinking of going to Tonkatsu AOKI in Kamata, but Kamata is too far for me. However, I knew there were other AOKI branches in Tokyo. So, I visited one of them: Tonkatsu AOKI Daimon(とんかつ檍 大門店), located near Daimon Station and Hamamatsucho Station.
Menu: They serve affordable lunch on weekdays only, but since it was the weekend, I couldn’t have the lunch set. They use Hayashi SPF Pork (林SPF), which is raised in Chiba Prefecture. SPF stands for Specific Pathogen Free, and this pork is considered safe and healthy.
I chose the pork shoulder loin cutlet set, which comes with tonkatsu, pork soup, pickled vegetables, and rice.
As you may not be able to tell from the photo, the cutlet was very large and thick. Its coating was crispy.
The tonkatsu was cooked medium-rare. I had never had such a juicy tonkatsu before! The Worcestershire sauce and mustard were a great addition. They also offer seven types of salts, allowing you to enjoy a variety of flavors. If you prefer your tonkatsu cooked well-done, they will gladly prepare it for you.
