During its heyday and before the trend of low-temperature frying tonkatsu artisans, Katsuretsutei In Kumamoto was voted as Tabelog no.1 tonkatsu restaurant in Japan. The shop has been serving pork cutlets for almost 50 years with a signature dish called Atsuage Tonkatsu. It uses a high-grade Roppaku black pork from Kirishima Highland in Kagoshima and coarse bread crumb to fry the meat, resulting in super crispy exterior.
