The original founder of Yoroppaken Main Store invented their signature katsudon that draws food enthusiasts from all over the country. Unlike typical katsudon, which is usually covered in egg, this version stands out for its flavorful sauce.

The cooking process is straightforward but meticulous. It starts by selecting high-quality pork loin or thigh, which is cut to specification. The pork is then coated in finely ground, special breadcrumbs and fried in lard to achieve a crispy finish. Once the cutlet is golden and hot, it is dipped into a secret sauce and placed atop freshly cooked rice to complete the dish.

The sauce, a special blend of Worcestershire and various spices, offers a subtle sweetness and tanginess that perfectly complements the crunchy cutlet.

Besides the traditional pork katsudon, there are also variations using shrimp, ground meat, and beef cutlets.

    I ordered the sauce katsudon, which comes with three pieces of pork cutlet. The taste is fantastic, and the sauce is amazing—I finished all the rice! Their pork cutlet has even been featured on TV. If you visit Fukui, you have to try it!
