I ordered the “Pork Loin Cutlet Set Meal” at Tonkatsu Takada near Nishinasuno Station.

I tried the Pork Loin Cutlet Set Meal at a tonkatsu specialty shop called "Tonkatsu Takada," about a 6-minute walk from Nishinasuno Station. The pork was super juicy, with savory flavor spreading through every bite, and the fat had a light, pleasant sweetness. Paired with the slightly sweet, toasty sauce, it was a perfect match—and my rice disappeared without me even noticing.

Dinner at “Torimasa,” the famous izakaya near Kuroiso Station known for its amazing complimentary otoshi!

From Kuroiso Station's West Exit, it's a 9-minute walk to Torimasa, a yakitori izakaya famous for its amazing otoshi. I chose the tuna natto, and it was incredibly satisfying—the portion size was unbelievable for an otoshi, and it tasted like a full-fledged side dish. The yakitori was also fantastic, especially the negima skewers, where the balance between the meat's savory richness and the sweetness and smoky aroma of the green onions was absolutely perfect.
