If you’re searching for a true taste of Japan, Katsudon Ouka near Nigawa Station is a must-visit.
Why? Because we serve katsudon—a crispy pork cutlet over rice with soft egg and savory sauce—that embodies Japanese soul food at its finest.
At Ouka, we take pride in balancing texture and flavor: the pork is tender and juicy, the egg is delicately cooked, and the sauce is a time-honored blend of soy, mirin, and dashi. One bite and you’ll understand why this dish is beloved by locals.
Simply put, if you want to experience the warmth and depth of Japanese comfort food, Katsudon Ouka delivers it with every bowl.
Savor Premium Pork Cutlets Crafted by a Former Diplomatic Chef
The secret to our standout katsudon is our chef—formerly a cook at a diplomatic residence in Europe.
Why does that matter? Because he brings world-class precision and a global palate to every dish while staying true to Japanese roots.
For example, he selects only premium pork cuts, ages them for optimal tenderness, and hand-breads each cutlet for the perfect crisp. He also steams the rice daily using local Japanese varieties known for their aroma and texture.
The result is a katsudon that surprises even Japanese guests with its depth and quality—crafted with the skill of someone who’s cooked for ambassadors, now cooking for you.
Discover the Unique “Untoasted” Katsudon Style
Our signature dish at Ouka is not just any katsudon—it’s what locals call “untoasted” style.
Unlike the typical version where the cutlet is simmered with egg and sauce, ours is carefully layered: the crispiness of the pork remains intact, while the fluffy egg is placed gently over the top with a rich sauce drizzled just before serving.
This technique keeps each element distinct—the crunch of the katsu, the softness of the rice, and the umami-rich sauce all stand out individually.
For travelers looking to try a unique twist on a Japanese classic, our katsudon is an unforgettable experience.
