This time meat, pork specifically. The Cat was in the mood for tonkatsu. The two places The Mouse knows of, reservations were filled. The Mouse proposed try try new-ish tonkatsu cafe. Used to be located at the Ohana Marketplace business incubator. Different style of tonkatsu.

Cafe is named after owners’ daughter. Cute ya?
Kasane Tonkatsu Bento
Most popular menu item. Kurobuto pork. Mmm!
Uzumaki Shiso Katsu Roll Bento
Kurobuto pork belly rolled with shiso. Even more Mmm!
The style the cafe does they call “mille-feuille” or thousand sheets, pastry term?
The Mouse thinks “croissant”. 🙂
The Cat think good choice, very tender and juicy. Sometimes other tonkatsu could be thicker, but dry. The Cat approved return visit. 🙂
Tuesdays must be slower for Ruby Tuesday. This week’s special, roast pork plate, not Chinese roast pork, Hawaiian kalua pork, porchetta, or even lechon, roast pork with gravy.
Roast Pork, Rice with Gravy, Baked Potato
Good plate for the reduced price. The Mouse’s one “complaint”, the pork was not cooked low and slow, ever so slightly on the tough side. Other than that, The Mouse enjoyed. Most of the rice and half of the potato goes to The Cat’s bento.
The Mouse also picked up a “keiki” plate to pack the Cat’s bento, she is eating dinner at her office for the remainder of tax season, saves a little bit of time.
