::If the meat was a little thicker, it would have been more chewy. Unfortunately, I could only feel the crispness of the batter. It feels a little sticky, but is it like this at a specialty store?

::Katsudon (2 pieces) 900 yen Today, we made two appointments in Ogano-cho, Chichibu-gun, Saitama Prefecture, and enjoyed a delicious lunch. I visited Yasudaya, which was founded in 1919 and serves Chichibu's specialty: Waraji Katsudon. This is the original Waraji Katsudon restaurant. It happened to be located about 2 minutes walk from the customer's house, which was lucky. The cutlet sticks out of the bowl and it's finished! When you open the lid, two large cutlets are neatly arranged. This Waraji Katsudon is a simple bowl with just cutlet and rice. The katsudon is richly seasoned, but it's made with loin meat that's fried in lard, and the crispy cutlet soaks up the soy sauce-based sweet sauce, making it extremely delicious. Although the meat is large, it is tender and easy to eat. The two cutlets seemed to have different textures. The rice was covered in sauce so it was delicious. Luxury yet less than 1,000 yen! I enjoyed the taste of a long-established restaurant at a high cost.

::Mid-May 2024 I visited in the evening, and on this day there were only 2 pieces of cutlet (900 yen). The customer service is unfriendly, but it's a restaurant so it's nothing to worry about. There was a cute big cat, but unfortunately it had been taken out when I went in. The waraji katsu from this restaurant was very delicious, and the sweetness of the sauce was good. Especially the fatty part was delicious. It was a weekday and there were no other customers so it was comfortable. This is my 3rd store at Warajikatsu, but it is a famous restaurant, and I would like to come back if I have a chance to come to Ogano.

::Day trip to Chichibu I came here to eat this. Although it's called Waraji Katsudon, it's more like a sauce bowl. This overwhelming power! And it's so simple! Just Waraji cutlet covered in sauce, rice, and fresh pickles (but I think it would be nice to have at least miso soup with it (lol)) There are only three menus posted on the wall. Katsudon (2 pieces) 900 yen One piece of rice bowl 800 yen Sanmaidon 1250 yen It's a shame that the staff aren't very friendly. What about your order? and. *However, I couldn't find the menu on the table (tears), but I found out later that the regulars said [3 pieces! ] or specify the number of sheets (because there is no difference other than the number of sheets) The sauce blends well with the cutlet and feels good. The rice with the sauce is also delicious😋 Chichibu Specialty in Saitama Prefecture Waraji Katsu-don (Waraji pork cutlet served on top of a bowl of rice) #Yasudaya Waraji Katsudon #Yasudaya Ogano main store #Yasudaya Ogano main store looks like a private house so you can't come unless you know about it #warajikatsudon #Chichibu gourmet trip #Chichibu Gourmet Summit Showdown #When you think of Chichibu, you think of waraji cutlet #There were no foreign tourists in Chichibu #WarajiKatsu-don

::A small family owned restaurant with only one menu item. They call it “Straw sandals” that actually is crispy golden brown pork schnitzel inspired by the shape of good old style. Quality of the food is exceptional, and priced insanely reasonable. Just expect a long lineup, before you get served.
