Wako Tonkatsu Takeaway

Time for a late lunch at Wako, my favourite tonkatsu restaurant. The plan was to eat in, but the takeaway menu had just come down by 100 yen.

The same meal that costs 1,250 yen to eat in was 720 yen to take away, so it was tonkatsu at home instead, in front of the finals of the All Japan Figure Skating Championships. Can you get big discounts on takeaway food where you live?

More about tonkatsu, katsu sando and katsudon, and where to try them, on the tonkatsu page.

I took this photo in December 2009 and only got round to posting it in 2026.
