Menu Review

Jungdon Seongsu menu

Once again, we ordered our usual combination: shrimp fillet tonkatsu (28,000 KRW) and fish cutlet (17,000 KRW).
At Jungdon, all three types of katsu are so delicious that we end up ordering the same menu every time we visit.

fish cutlet

All katsu share one thing in common: the outside is extremely crispy and very tasty.
The portion size is generous, so it is very satisfying. My boyfriend and I both really love large shrimp, so we always choose the shrimp fillet tonkatsu. Compared to pork loin, the fillet is more moist and tender, so I recommend the fillet katsu.

Dip the shrimp in the green sauce, and eat the fillet katsu with a little wasabi and the brown sauce together. There are two kinds of salt, and the yellow salt has a subtle yuzu aroma that spreads gently.

The fish cutlet sauce is addictive but can feel slightly greasy, so if you eat it together with pickled radish and pickles, it removes the greasiness well. The pickles are not only good with the fish cutlet but also perfect as a palate cleanser while eating other katsu. As you eat like this, the plate becomes empty before you realize it.
