"The Best Places to Have Menchi Katsu in Tokyo: Asakusa Menchi - This menchi uses a mix of Kouza pork, a popular pork in Japan that has a high quality of fat, and Japanese beef. Menchi is super crispy on the outside because of the special bread crumbs, and the juicy flavour explodes in your mouth once you bite in. It is nice that this delicious menchi katsu is less than ￥500."

"8 Street Foods To Try: Asakusa Menchi - I knew I had to get this. The croquette is very juicy and it may burn you as it’s very hot. Apparently, they sell thousands of this per day! Enough said."

"The cutlet is stuffed generously with Kanagawa Kouza pork. Meat juice will gush out from your first bite, an irresistible taste. You won’t need any sauce because just the good flavor of meat will be enough. But you can add some “Japanese mustard” to enhance the taste, which brings out even more harmonious tastiness."

"The best version I’ve ever had, famous for being particularly juicy/greasy, depending on your point of view, and they use a rare breed of pork called Kouza-buta (Kouza pork) from Kanagawa."
