2026.04.13
Thank you very much for your continued patronage of Katsukichi.
We sincerely appreciate the many guests who visit us each day.
We are pleased to introduce our seasonal summer offering, the “Tonkatsu Set with Special Ume (Plum) Sauce,” available from May 1, 2026 for a limited time.
This dish features a specially crafted plum sauce made from additive-free Nanko plums from Minabe, Wakayama, produced without pesticides and with reduced salt (3%).
The sauce offers a delicate balance of gentle sweetness and refreshing acidity, creating a light and elegant flavor profile perfect for the summer season.
Originally a popular item at the time of the Nihonbashi Takashimaya location’s opening, this dish will also be available this summer at our Shin-Marunouchi and Hibiya locations.
Please note that our Shibuya location has been temporarily closed since June 14, 2025.
◆ About the Special Ume Sauce
Umeboshi (pickled plum), long valued in Japan as a traditional health food, is carefully prepared here as a refined dipping sauce to complement tonkatsu.
Its fruit-like sweetness and well-balanced acidity enhance the richness of the cutlet while leaving a clean, refreshing finish.
We select only premium Nanko ume from Minabe, crafted without additives and with reduced salt, to achieve a harmonious balance of flavor.
The dish is served with seasonal condiments such as myoga ginger and wasabi, adding further depth and a refreshing aromatic touch.
