Maruhachi’s Pork Katsu Set ($11.80) is a cheap yet very decent alternative to my regular katsu cravings. The pork is not oily at all (taste and smell-wise) making it pleasing to eat. It is a bit lean and have minimal fat, but still tender. The crumbs are worth noting as well as it’s very light (some hawker stalls do tend to have the coating slightly thick)
This comes with Japanese rice, miso soup, and cabbage (w Kewpie 😋) - all the usual stuff we get free-flowing from katsu restaurants but with at least half the price
Enjoyed this dish, will try their blackpig katsu next time (raved to have better fat-to-meat ratio!) ☺️
