Tonkatsu Daiki

Located in Tokyo, Tonkatsu Daiki is a haven for tonkatsu enthusiasts. Specializing in tonkatsu, this restaurant takes pride in offering a unique twist on this beloved dish. What sets Tonkatsu Daiki apart is their meticulous approach to cooking: the fillet is prepared as white tonkatsu, cooked slowly at low temperatures for tenderness, while the loin is crispy and flavorful, cooked to perfection for that satisfying crunch.

One of the secrets to their delicious tonkatsu lies in the breadcrumbs they use, sourced from Naka-ya Breadcrumb Factory. Each part of the meat is coated with breadcrumbs that vary in sugar content and size, enhancing the overall flavor and texture. Additionally, Tonkatsu Daiki uses rare intestinal lard for frying, which has a higher melting point than regular lard, resulting in a crispy and light coating. The restaurant also prides itself on using premium ingredients such as SPF Iwachu pork from Iwate Prefecture and black pork from Kagoshima Prefecture, ensuring a top-notch dining experience for every guest. With a focus on quality and attention to detail, Tonkatsu Daiki promises a culinary journey like no other for tonkatsu aficionados.
