A Japanese-style izakaya located about 3 minutes' walk from JR Togimi Station. I visited it for lunch on a weekend. The interior has a counter with 4 seats and 8 tables, totaling around 12 seats. I arrived around 12 o'clock, and there were only 3 other customers in the place.
The lunch menu offers three delicious options that change daily. In addition, there are fried dishes such as pork loin cutlets, pork thigh cutlets, fried chicken, chicken nabe, meat mix fried dishes, seafood mix fried dishes, and crab cream croquettes. There are also meat dishes like ginger-braised meat, pork steak, tontekki, and Shinshu beef neta steaks. Moreover, there are various other dishes like meat spaghetti, curry soup, omelette, and beef curry. The menu offers a wide variety of choices.
I ordered a pork cutlet meal that costs NT$980 after tax. I could choose among various sauces—miso, Western-style, or miso with rice. I decided to go with the miso sauce.
The pork cutlet in this miso sauce is well-flavored and has a substantial thickness. It’s possible to request thicker meat for an additional 300 yen, but the regular version is already quite satisfying. The meat has a rich texture, and the juicy fat is delicious. I really wished there was a little more of that fat. The miso itself is a light-tasting type that thoroughly absorbs into the batter. The strong flavor of the miso is well complemented by the green onions. Additionally, mayonnaise was served as a side dish, which was a pleasant addition. For miso cutlets, mayonnaise is like a perfect combo with the miso—a combination that truly delivers deliciousness.
There were also other menus that caught my attention, so I hope to visit again if I have the chance. Thank you for the delicious meal.
