Store name: Katsudon Chiyomatsu | Dotonbori Main Store (Google Map search)

This shop is really popular. It opens at 11 o'clock every day. There are only 10 seats in the shop.
We went there twice. The first time we went there at 11 o'clock, there were already more than 20 people queuing outside the shop.
The second time we arrived at the shop at 10:20, there were three people in front of us. Note that they start taking orders at about 10:45.

If many people go to eat, they must line up in the queue.
We entered the shop at 11 o'clock and sat down. We were shocked by the huge pile of thick pork cutlets for the first time.
The chef made it very skillfully and served the finished product in a short while. I was shocked for the second time.
Although the pork cutlet is very thick, it is actually stewed in advance and then fried with flour.
It is crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. It falls apart when you bite it. I was shocked for the third time.
The pork chop is covered with a half-cooked egg pancake, and the rice is greasy and soaked in a special sauce.
A bite of pork chop and egg rice, I was shocked for the fourth time, it was really delicious!
I have never understood fried food with rice, but this time I understand!

The pork chop rice in this restaurant must be ordered per person, and it is enough for girls to order the smallest portion.
My boyfriend ordered a super large portion and almost didn't finish it.
You don't have to order vegetable soup, but it's just canned tomato soup, which is pretty average.

My friend and I ordered the largest and smallest portions, as well as a vegetable soup, for a total of 4,000 yen, or about $25.
