The menu offers various cuts of pork including rosu (loin) and hire (fillet), each coated in panko breadcrumbs and fried to order. Each set meal includes shredded cabbage, rice, miso soup, and pickles, with unlimited cabbage and rice refills. Diners grind their own sesame seeds to mix with the house tonkatsu sauce, a small ritual that forms part of the experience. Premium kurobuta (Berkshire pork) options are available at a higher price point.
Set meals range from RM25 for a standard fillet to over RM50 for kurobuta cuts. The restaurant is busiest during lunch hours when the Southkey office crowd arrives. Seating is limited during peak periods, so arriving slightly before or after the noon rush is advisable.
