Japanese style western food aka “Yoshoku.” An 8-seat mom & pop resto serving quality food. Their specialty is menchi-Katsu teishoku or deep fried breaded minced meat patie which was very juicy and flavorful. If you are in the neighborhood, this place is highly recommended but they only take CASH and menu is in Japanese. Teishoku or set meal comes with miso soup (lots of ingredients!), pickles, shredded cabbage and potato salad! Yum!

A Western food restaurant located about a 5-minute walk from Gotanda Station.

There are only counter seats. We arrived just after 2pm and the curry was already sold out as it was the last business day of the year.

I ordered a set meal of minced meat cutlet and fried shrimp.
The miso soup was pork soup and I was happy.

I ate the minced meat cutlet because it was said to be a specialty, and it was meaty and spiced, so it was very delicious and my favorite.

The fried shrimp was small but crispy.

I thought it was a restaurant worth visiting for the minced meat cutlet.

Gitaro Shamo When I was thinking of eating oyakodon at Takahashi, I saw a notice...
The store owner was hospitalized for an emergency and the store will be closed for a while. disappointing.

So I went to this store, which I had been interested in for a while but had never had the chance to go to.
In conclusion, I wish I had gone sooner.

This is a long-established Western restaurant located about the same distance from Gotanda Station and Osaki-Hirokoji Station.
A very simple, unadorned appearance. When I entered the store, about half of the seats were occupied.
There are no unnecessary items in the store, and the kitchen is always kept clean.
It's a small shop with about 8 seats at the counter, but looking at the cleanliness of the kitchen, it was so orderly that you can't go wrong with this restaurant.
The husband and the woman are both short-haired and neat-looking.
It was around 11:30, but as soon as we entered, the place filled up quickly.
This time I had the minced meat cutlet curry (1,100 yen), and I can understand why it has been popular for many years.
It's a slightly dry curry with a deep flavor, and it also contains chunks of meat about 3cm in size, as well as minced meat cutlet on top.
Comes with Fukujinzuke. Of course, the minced meat is freshly fried, so there's no way it wouldn't be delicious.
It was a taste that definitely didn't disappoint, or rather, it didn't disappoint my imagination at all of what Swachka's minced curry would taste like. Payment is in cash only.
It's a Western restaurant with just the right flavor, and I wish it would stay here forever.
I wonder if there is anyone who can inherit this taste.
