The chicken katsu set is equally noteworthy, featuring a perfect balance between a crisp, golden exterior and a succulent interior. When paired with the curry, it achieves a sublime harmony of spice, depth, and flavor, elevating the dining experience. The chicken cutlet boasts a tenderness that yields effortlessly to a spoon. The curry, generously ladled to the very edge of the plate, cradles an exquisite chicken katsu that spans the entire dish, resting atop a bed of finely shredded cabbage. This substantial portion promises a truly satisfying meal.
