The black pig katsudon is definitely a disappointment. It doesn’t even taste like black pig. The meat is fatty and tough with tendons. It’s also soggy when they put it between the rice and egg. Considering that the shop has a rich history in Tokyo, this is unforgivable. Not going back there again.

I think so too, I was so disappointed with their tonkatsu… it was just hard and dry… lacking the juicyness and the yummylicious of fat. Tonkichi and tampopo win hands down anytime^^ so please don’t waste another trip there!

I had the Tampopo tonkatsu ramen during my recent SG trip and it was alright. They are having a 1st anniversary promotion now, with discounts up to 50%.

(Why do I sound like I’m doing PR work for them, haha?)

It was great meeting you and the other food bloggers for dinner during this trip! Made my evening, certainly.
