Tonkatsu - Japanese breaded and fried pork cutlet - gets elevated at the new 23-seat Shiokoji Tonkatsu Keisuke at Paya Lebar Square.
How this differs from the usual tonkatsu is in the use of shiokoji - a mix of sea salt and fermented short-grain white rice - to marinate the pork loin (from $16.90) and tenderloin (from $18.90). It acts as a natural flavour enhancer and also makes the meat extra tender.
