とりかつ屋あつこさんのとりももカツ定食 : Tori Katsuya Atsuko

Visited in May 2023 On Mondays on weekdays during GW, the two of us will have dinner in Atami. I will go to Mr./Ms. Atsuko, a torikatsuya that my brother was interested in, for the first time. It is said that it is a chicken restaurant run by Mr./Ms. of Yoshimoto Kogyo's comedy duo Health Zombie Putchin Atsuko. The location is along the narrow alley that enters the prefectural road 11 Atamiume line from National Route 135 and intersects first, opposite the side of the home improvement store. There is no parking lot, so I used a nearby coin parking lot this time. By train, it's about a 10-minute walk from Kurimiya Station on the JR Ito Line, but it may be a little difficult because it's uphill on the way back. We arrived around 18:20. The exterior is a four-story residential and restaurant building with a narrow and deep width, and the impression of a small restaurant of Japanese-style meal is impressive. The interior of the store also has a slightly retro Japanese-style Izakaya (Japanese-style bar) Mr./Ms. interior and consists only of a counter for face-to-face customer service. The counter is divided into three sections by a wall. The kitchen is in the back, so you can't see the cooking. When entering the store, a single woman serves customers. From the middle, Mr./Ms., who is very tall, also came out and served the two of them. There was only one man who seemed to be a regular Mr./Ms. and two women who entered the store just before, so it was not crowded at this time. The menu is mainly chicken-based dishes such as torimo, torimune tori cutlet, and tori cream Croquette, and pork-based Meat Dishes such as pork loin cutlet and pork teki, and the set meal is 1000 yen, and the price is 800 yen for a single item, which is easy to understand. Other, salt Ramen, Gyoza / Dumpling set meals and many types of snacks with a unified price of 300 yen. Alcoholic beverages are also unified at 300 yen, so it is easy to understand the accounting. If you choose well, you can drink it cheaply. This time, I ordered a set meal of tori thigh katsu, a set meal of tori mune katsu, tori cream Croquette, and tori skin ponzu sauce as a single item. I'm not a driver, so I'll have a bottle of beer. The beer is 300 yen at Asahi this time, so it's a small bottle. When I have it, the ponzu sauce comes out immediately and I don't feel lonely. Crispy fried chicken skin is served with ponzu sauce, and yuzu pepper goes well with it. The beer proceeds immediately. Next, tori cream Croquette appeared. It is a crispy and light texture batter with coarse breadcrumbs, and it contains chicken loosened in cream, making it a chicken cream with a unique texture. This is quite delicious, so I recommend it. Next, a set meal of tori katsu also appeared. The set meal comes with rice, miso soup, cabbage, pickled cucumber and four kinds of garnishes, so I'm glad that there are many items. The garnishes are Chinese dumpling, bird burdock, sweet potato Simmered dish, and hijiki, each of which is delicious. The batter has a crispy and light texture of coarse breadcrumbs. The sauce is a slightly mushy Pork Cutlet sauce and curry sauce for a different taste. The thighs are juicy, a little greasy, and a little gutsy. Torimune has a light and soft texture, and both are the ones that go well with rice. The volume was not too much, and the whole feeling was just right. There are many menus that I am interested in, such as torimenchikatsu and toriberg, so I would like to come again.
