Carmina's Experience from Tonkatsu Tamafuji

Three months ago, Gilbert had made reservation at Tonkatsu Tamafuji a popular place where people will just wait patiently to be seated down at the restaurant.

Mom Violy couldn't believe how people will just stand up waiting as more people will arrive. Now you begin to wonder why people would be excited to eat Tonkatsu Tamafuji's food.

Honestly Gilbert has tried their food many times but wanted to share his experiences with Mom Violy and Carmina.

Gilbert had explained each meal comes with your choice of soup and rice from their menu. You won't believe someone is walking around carry cabbage salad to refill your plate to those who want more.

Gilbert asked what we wanted to eat.

Mom Violy said she'll try the 5 Pieces Oyster Katsu Teishoku with Tofu and Seaweed Miso Soup and White Rice.

Carmina ordered the 5 Pieces Shrimp Katsu with Tofu and Seaweed Miso and Seasoned Mixed Rice.

Gilbert ordered the 5 Pieces Jyukusei Pork Tender Lion Katsu with Red Miso and Oyster Soup and Seasoned Mixed Rice.

Tonkatsu Tamafuji is known for sesame seeds that comes from Japan where you need to grind your own before adding tonkatsu sauce depending on you taste from sweet and sour.
