Our Commitment to Ingredients

A daily encounter with rare premium branded pork

Our signature Hayashi SPF is a premium branded pork raised on a specially formulated grain-based diet. It is carefully bred in a clean environment with minimal use of antibiotics, resulting in fine-textured, tender meat and a rich, naturally sweet aroma of fat. In addition, rare branded pork such as San’emon from Ibaraki and Awayuki Pork from Gunma are offered on a rotating daily basis. Depending on the day’s supply, you can enjoy unique flavors available only that day.

Nine condiments and carefully selected rice to enhance the flavor of tonkatsu

To let you fully appreciate the rich flavors of our premium branded pork, we pay special attention to our condiments and rice as well. We offer a selection of nine accompaniments and sauces—including wasabi, yuzu pepper, fresh pepper, Yamagata-style karashi koji, chopped pickles, soy sauce, and Osaka-grown fig sauce—so you can enjoy different flavor profiles with each bite. Our rice is a unique blend based on Nara-grown Hinohikari and Yamagata-grown Haenuki, with slightly reduced sweetness to complement and enhance the natural umami of the pork.
