Oʻahu Food Review: Ginza Bairin Tonkatsu 🐷✨

Tried the famously divisive tonkatsu spot — and here’s my honest take! 🍛 Photo 1: Classic Pork Cutlet (Non-Kurobuta) After reading mixed reviews, I skipped the premium black pork and went with the regular tonkatsu. ✅ Crispy coating, minimal fat, and satisfyingly crunchy. ✅ Way better than any tonkatsu I’ve had in Canada! 📈 Rating: 7/10 — solid, but still a bit heavy (it’s fried, after all 😅) 🍚 Photo 2: Katsudon (Pork Cutlet Rice Bowl) 👎 Not a fan — the sauce tasted a bit off and didn’t blend well with the egg or rice. 📉 Rating: 5/10 — you can skip this one. 💬 Final Thoughts: It’s worth a visit if you’ve never been — but once is enough. Go for the classic tonkatsu, keep expectations in check, and maybe explore other local gems for your next meal! #GinzaBairin #HawaiiEats #WaikikiFood #OahuDining #TonkatsuLovers #HawaiiTravel
