Before we moved offices; I did sort of a lunch farewell tour of various places; some of which I hadn't been to in a while. Musashiya surely falls into that category. While I'd had some fairly decent meals when this stand was Kayaba; my meals at Musashiya had really been lacking. But since we'd be changing locations in a few months I decided to see if the Tonkatsu there had improved.
And while the tonkatsu looked a bit better than what I'd had here previously…..
I'd say no. As you can tell by the color, this had been fried too long. The breading was super hard; not crisp, hard. The pork was dry and the breading had separated from the pork cutlet.
Other than that; the rice was hard, the potato salad way too salty.
The best items was the tamago; which, while on the too sweet side for me was decent.
I just couldn't bring myself to finish the tonkatsu…..
I hate wasting food; but I couldn't bring myself to finish this. The woman who buses the tables gave me the oddest look as I handed her my tray with two of the largest….and by the look of it; the driest slices of pork still on it.
Really sad. If you'd like to see a comparison of items between Kayaba and Musashiya you can check out this post. Though my last visit to Kayaba wasn;t that great either.
Bummer.
