Shotei

Some diners say the special pork loin cutlet stands out for its sweet, rich fat and tender meat. One lunchtime visitor enjoyed it with both sweet tonkatsu sauce and spicy Worcestershire sauce. For the flavour of pork loin, the special loin cutlet is an obvious choice; those who prefer a thicker cut of fillet can opt for the special fillet cutlet.

In the mood for katsudon? Shotei also offers a Yanagawa-style version. One diner who ordered it reported that the simmered cutlet and rice arrived separately, so they could place the cutlet on the rice themselves. It’s a good option for anyone who likes to decide how to combine the two.

There are other fried dishes to choose from, including crab croquettes and fried prawns, as well as young chicken cutlet. Some lunchtime visitors have ordered the special fillet cutlet set meal or the young chicken cutlet set meal. In Minami-Senju 5-chome, Shotei centres its menu on tonkatsu, while dinner can also be paired with draft beer or lemon sour.
