About this place
What comes alongside ginger pork can change the character of a set meal. At Kitchen Nangoku, it can be paired with fried horse mackerel, young chicken tenderloin or chicken cutlet, making these combinations a good choice for anyone who wants fried food with their meal.
One diner who ordered ginger pork with fried horse mackerel found that the pork and onion stir-fried with ginger went well with rice, while the fish had a crisp coating and a soft, fluffy interior. Another visitor noted that the ginger pork’s restrained sweetness, with its savoury soy sauce flavour, paired well with rice.
For a different fried option, consider ginger pork with young chicken tenderloin fry. A diner who chose this set commented that the coating was thin and the meat plump and tender. The menu also offers two-item combinations such as minced cutlet with chicken cutlet, or crab cream croquette with another fried dish, for days when you want the fried food to take centre stage.
Curry is another focus. The menu includes loin katsu curry, premium katsu curry with 150 g of premium loin, and chicken katsu curry. One diner praised the rich curry sauce, freshly fried cutlet and satisfying portion. Another liked that the curry was not poured over the cutlet, leaving them free to try it with sauce first. The different ways of eating it may be part of the appeal.
If you would like a little curry alongside a set meal, half a portion of curry sauce is also available. One diner enjoyed it with ginger pork and fried horse mackerel, along with rice. It is an extra to consider after choosing your main dish if you want to try both fried food and curry.
The restaurant offers dine-in meals and is described as suitable for solo diners. Lunch and dinner menus are available, with weekday service at midday and in the evening, and weekend service at midday. In Waseda, you can choose between a set meal combining fried dishes and ginger pork or a curry, depending on what you feel like eating.
