Japan [Day 9] - Tonkatsu in Nishi-Azabu

Today we had the two best meals we had all vacation. Ami took us to this little place that had the best tempura I've had sofar. It was a tiny little place in Ueno called Tsuna Hachi (5th floor). It was so good that all you needed to add was salt ... no need for all that sauce, etc


For dinner, we we went to a tonkatsu (pork cutlet) restaurant called Butagumi. It was THE best tonkatsu I've ever had!! I was blown away.
I got the sampler dish, and it came with 5 different types of tonkatsu, each with different texture and fat content. When I got to the last pieces, they were as tender as biting into a rib-eye steak with all the flavor. I was in love.
