📝 Introduction

At the oldest tonkatsu restaurant in Nagoya, savor authentic miso tonkatsu.

📖 Details

Opened in 1945, this specialty tonkatsu shop is famous for its Nagoya delicacy "Miso Tonkatsu," which is enjoyed with a rich miso sauce. The secret to the deliciousness of the dish lies in the traditional miso sauce, simmered for over 77 years, which is packed with deep flavor. The meals are crafted with care using carefully selected ingredients, including the Japanese Mochi pig sourced directly from producers. One of the popular items is the "Braised Pork Three Ways" (limited to 15 servings), featuring chopped braised pork served over a wooden rice tub filled with white rice. There are also various Nagoya-style specialties, such as the "Nagoya Specialty Shachihoko Rice Bowl," designed with the dazzling "Shachihoko" from Nagoya Castle's rooftop. Another signature item is the thin-skinned grilled bun "Manza," which has a soft exterior and a chewy texture that makes it addictive with just one bite. This product has been trademarked and is an exclusive specialty that can only be found at Kihaitei.
