I went to the tonkatsu restaurant “Shukugawa Katsuki” in Shukugawa Green Place (^^)/
We previously featured their takeout, but this time I had it freshly fried!!!

What I Ate at “Shukugawa Katsuki”
Shukugawa Katsuki Plate \2,068 (tax included)
This is such a luxurious plate where you can choose both a main and a side, and it even comes with a large fried shrimp (*^-^*)
For the main, you can choose loin katsu or fillet katsu← This time I chose the loin
For the side, you can choose shrimp cream croquette or coarsely ground menchi katsu← I chose the cream croquette
And it’s generously topped with their homemade original demi-glace sauce !(^^)!
Look at the size of this fried shrimp (^^)/
That happiness of crispy, plump shrimp that just keeps going and going 😍
You can enjoy the fried shrimp with tartar sauce, demi-glace sauce, and more~
The loin katsu looks like this (^^)/
Even though I’m at a tonkatsu place, this demi-glace sauce makes it feel almost like I’m at a yoshoku Western-style restaurant~
It’s crispy, and the meat is tender and juicy 😋
The just-right fattiness of the loin is really nice (*^-^*)
I couldn’t cut the cream croquette neatly with chopsticks, so ↓
Please take a look at the cross-section from the previous takeout article (^^)/ The color is a deep yellow!
Freshly fried, it was even creamier than this, with a rich flavor! Cream croquette lovers will love it (*^-^*)
I want to enjoy it just as it is, without any sauce! Even with sauce, the flavor still holds its own !(^^)!
Mixed Shrimp Katsu Set \1,848 (tax included)
Shrimp katsu, coarsely ground menchi katsu, fillet katsu, 16-grain rice, shijimi clam soup, cabbage, pickles
It came with ponzu in addition to the sauce (^_-)-☆
The sauce is the kind you make yourself by grinding sesame seeds!
It says, “A fruity and refreshing homemade secret sauce based on ripe tomatoes and apples!
We have carefully crafted it to bring out the flavor of the tonkatsu.” (^^)/
Look~ (^^)/ at the cross-section of this coarsely ground menchi katsu!
The coarsely ground meat is juicy, and together with the onion it has a crispy bite! Mixed with that sauce from earlier, it practically calls out for rice!
This shrimp katsu~ How much shrimp is packed in there? It looks like it’s about to overflow!!
It makes me want to line up the shrimp and count them~
The plump texture of the shrimp stays intact while blending perfectly with the crispiness (*^-^*) It also went well with the ponzu!
The fillet katsu was so crispy that the coating stood up nicely! The meat was tender and light, yet full of flavor~
It paired really well with the restaurant’s recommended sauce (^^)/

Lastly
The katsu at Shukugawa Katsuki is fried in an original blend of oil, so it doesn’t feel greasy at all or sit heavily in your stomach. Its crispy texture is the kind that gets addictive (*^-^*)
The free refills of rice, cabbage, and miso soup also make it a great place to go with a growing family!
I was able to fully enjoy all that crispiness in a relaxed restaurant setting~ (^^)/
