If your favourite way to enjoy kurobuta (Kagoshima-style black pork) is deep-fried, this institution does it in prodigiously crunchy crust, as tonkatsu (cutlets) or donburi (rice bowls). Reasonably priced teishoku (set meals) come with generous sides of cabbage rice and delicate, pork-broth-based miso soup. The Kurokatsutei set lunch features two of the best-selling pork cuts: fillet and loin.
Look for the black storefront one block east of the Kagoshima East Post Office. Inside, the atmosphere is updated farm house.
