WHY GO

Wine and dine to scrumptious Japanese fare at 6,000 feet above sea level, in the city above the clouds.

As its name means Japanese breaded deep-fried pork cutlet, so undoubtedly that is the star of the menu although there is a good range of deep fried meats and seafood of prawns, salmon and a firm favourite of juicy oysters deepfried to perfection.

Start with a bowl of tasty double-boiled pork belly soup to prepare the palate for the katsu dishes to come. For the star of the night, the pork cutlets are a delight with its moist, tender meat encased within a golden crisp exterior. They are good on its own, but paired with Tonkatsu’s signature homemade sesame sauce further accentuates the flavours of the dish.

The pan-sautéed pork belly with ginger sauce is highly recommended as the succulent pork slices sautéed with sweet onions are a perfect accompaniment to white rice. For those wishing to spice things up, the katsu curry is a good choice with its smooth, flavourful Japanese curry amply complementing the pork fillet.
