ABOUT
Sangen Pork Research Institute is a tonkatsu specialty brand
dedicated to bringing out the full umami of pork.
Thickness, temperature, and time—
each element is carefully designed
to achieve perfection in every single cut.
We use low-temperature cooking to enhance tenderness,
then finish with high-heat frying
to create a light, crispy exterior and a moist, tender interior.
From ultra-thick cuts to a range of different thicknesses,
our lineup is crafted to showcase the unique appeal of each style.
Following our expansion in Taiwan,
we are pleased to now open in Japan.
Building on the techniques and philosophy we have refined,
we serve each piece of tonkatsu with the utmost care and precision.
