Enjoy the Taste of Kyoto's "Famous Back-Alley Restaurants" in Osaka
The third-generation owner of Tonkatsu Ichiban, who grew up watching his parents running the Kyoto branch of Tonkatsu Ichiban since 1960, trained at Italian and French restaurants before moving to Osaka on the occasion of the restaurant's 60th anniversary.It is also easily accessible from Hommachi, Nishinagahori, and Shinsaibashi.In addition to the standard menu of tonkatsu using "Kinka Pork" and "Yonezawa Pork," the restaurant offers a "Brand Pork Campaign" in which customers can taste brand pork from all over Japan ordered directly from the producing regions every one to two months.

Innovating While Preserving the Historic Taste of Tonkatsu
The first bite is served with our special salt, and the second bite is served with a choice of Western or Japanese style.The standard is the Western style with homemade demi-glace sauce, but the owner recommends the Japanese style with aged soy sauce from Sawai Soy Sauce in Kyoto City and fresh or chopped wasabi from Shizuoka Prefecture.You can feel the sweetness of the mellow fat.

Different Frying Methods and Sauces for Lunch and Dinner
Lunch tonkatsu is deep-fried in hot oil to preserve the flavor of the meat, making it an irresistibly crispy delicacy.In contrast, the dinner tonkatsu is deep-fried slowly at a low temperature to make the pork juicy.Taste it with rich demi-glace sauce or aged wasabi soy sauce.
