Chicken katsu comes to us from Japan, land of the Rising Sun and the most delicious cuisines (in your humble description writer's humble opinion, of course). But the amazing Japanese dishes go beyond just sushi and ramen: tonkatsu sauce, a complex and thick melding of flavors. Worcestershire, ketchup, sugar, and soy blend into a perfect ratio of sweet, tangy, smoky, and salt. How does that taste on a piece of perfectly fried chicken? Click order and find out.
