Visiting right at 5pm when the break time ends, the writer ordered kkot katsu, cheese kkot katsu, and mini curry, pairing them with the self-serve bar's cumin salt, lemon salt, wasabi, and truffle oil. The kkot katsu dipped in truffle oil, plus the curry-dipping combo, were the standouts of the visit. ## Good to know - **Hours**: Daily 11:00–21:00 - **Break time**: 15:00–17:00 - **Last order**: 20:30 - **Parking**: In front of the restaurant, nearby public parking lots - **Ordered**: Kkot katsu, cheese kkot katsu, mini curry - **Self-serve bar**: Cumin salt, lemon salt, wasabi, truffle oil, pickled radish, mountain pepper, dried radish kimchi - **Receipt review event**: Choice of drink, cheese balls, or beer *as written by the visitor on Sep 7, 2026* Today's post is a review of Kkot Gatsu, a well-known pork cutlet restaurant in Dongtan's Mokdong area that anyone hunting for good katsu in Dongtan has probably heard of! ## Kkot Gatsu's hours and parking - ⏰ Hours: Daily 11:00–21:00 - Break time 15:00–17:00 - Last order 20:30 - 🅿️ Parking: In front of the restaurant, nearby public parking lots ![Wood-toned exterior of Kkot Gatsu pork cutlet restaurant in Dongtan](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-01-7zxu6-887.webp) ![Entrance of Kkot Gatsu Dongtan Main Branch with Japanese-style atmosphere](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-02-7f3sd-900.webp) Kkot Gatsu has a wood-toned interior with a Japanese vibe from the outside, so even before going in I already felt like I was about to have a properly good pork cutlet! ![Parking space in front of Kkot Gatsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-03-8yf81-900.webp) You can park right in front of the restaurant or use the nearby public parking lot :) ![Front of Kkot Gatsu right after break time](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-04-1vlcn-m-900.webp) ## We timed our visit to avoid the wait, right after break time Kkot Gatsu is actually famous for its long waits, but we visited right when break time ended at 5pm, so we managed to skip the wait — though customers streamed in so fast that a line formed almost immediately?! ![Waiting area at Kkot Gatsu entrance](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-05-1lq6e-874.webp) ![Interior of Kkot Gatsu filling up with customers](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-06-yx8pi-m-900.webp) ![Wood-toned seating inside Kkot Gatsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-07-1pd10-900.webp) ## The atmosphere inside Stepping inside, the interior matched the exterior — a warm, wood-toned atmosphere overall 🤍 It felt just as fitting for a Dongtan date spot! ![Warm-atmosphere table at Kkot Gatsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-08-ec5b8-900.webp) ![Interior decor of Kkot Gatsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-09-dj7y0-900.webp) ## What we ordered: kkot katsu, cheese kkot katsu, mini curry Kkot Gatsu offers set menus and à la carte options beyond the standard single cutlet dishes, so there's a nice range of choices! We ended up ordering kkot katsu, cheese kkot katsu, and mini curry. ![Kkot Gatsu menu board showing set and à la carte items](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-10-mh5sk-900.webp) Kkot Gatsu also runs a receipt review event where you can get a drink, cheese balls, or beer — definitely worth taking part in! ![Kkot Gatsu receipt review event signage](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-11-vwj9t-900.webp) ## There's even truffle oil at the self-serve bar One thing I really liked about Kkot Gatsu was the self-serve bar! ![Self-serve bar corner at Kkot Gatsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-12-xsc65-900.webp) Beyond the standard sauces you'd find at any pork cutlet place, they had cumin salt, lemon salt, wasabi, and truffle oil — and personally, the truffle oil was my favorite of them all! ![Cumin salt, lemon salt, wasabi, and truffle oil sauces on display](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-13-1ub39-900.webp) ![Pork cutlet sauces set out at the self-serve bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-14-1gp7w-900.webp) There were also side dishes like pickled radish, mountain pepper, and dried radish kimchi! ![Pickled radish, mountain pepper, and dried radish kimchi side dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-15-mnsg3-900.webp) I neatly portioned out just as much as we'd actually eat haha ![Full table setting with cheese kkot katsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-16-1gq7q-900.webp) *Cheese kkot katsu* ![Full table setting with tenderloin kkot katsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-17-158xq-900.webp) *Kkot katsu* ![Close-up of kkot katsu cross-section](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-18-17dsy-900.webp) ![A piece of cheese kkot katsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-19-y6rb1-900.webp) ## A cross-section with a hint of pink — the tenderloin katsu Both the cheese kkot katsu and the kkot katsu looked so appetizing, right?! The cross-section had a pinkish tint that looked incredibly juicy at a glance! ![Salad with sesame dressing](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-20-1ve35-900.webp) I tend to quietly care a lot about the salad dressing at pork cutlet places, and this one had a sesame-flavored dressing that wasn't heavy at all and really whetted the appetite — I loved it! ![Salad and side dishes served with the cutlets](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-21-27r7h-900.webp) ## How big is the mini curry, really? The mini curry came out right away too — with a name like 'mini curry,' I expected something side-dish-sized, but it turned out to be pretty generous, plenty for two of us to share alongside the cutlets. ![Kkot Gatsu's mini curry side dish](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-22-f5zw5-1200.webp) ![Kkot katsu dipped into the curry](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-23-bwxad-900.webp) Dipping the kkot katsu and cheese kkot katsu into the curry was absolutely delicious!!!!!!! Definitely order the mini curry and dip your cutlets in it — highly recommend! ![Pork cutlet served with a bowl of rice](https://img.superchart.com/images/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry-24-1o4ms-900.webp) And with rice — no need to say more, it was so good we asked for a second bowl haha ## Final thoughts - ✔️ A popular Dongtan spot where the wait builds up fast - ✔️ Clean, warm wood-toned interior - ✔️ Appetizing pork cutlets with a pinkish cross-section - ✔️ A well-stocked self-serve bar with cumin salt, truffle oil, lemon salt, wasabi, and various side dishes - ✔️ The mini curry side dish pairs really well with the cutlets Kkot Gatsu was a fun spot where juicy, tender tenderloin cutlets could be customized to taste with cumin salt, wasabi, lemon salt, and truffle oil. The kkot katsu dipped in truffle oil was what stuck with me most, and dunking the cutlet into the mini curry was also delicious 💛 If you're looking for a good pork cutlet spot in Dongtan, I recommend giving Kkot Gatsu a visit. ## Where it is - Kkot Gatsu Dongtan Main Branch (꽃가츠 동탄본점) - 33 Wangbaesan 3-gil, Dongtan-gu, Hwaseong-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 화성시 동탄구 왕배산3길 33 1층 - 37.1810465, 127.1256887 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EA%BD%83%EA%B0%80%EC%B8%A0%20%EB%8F%99%ED%83%84%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@37.1810465,127.1256887,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@gyeonggi-broth-alcove/kkotgatsu-dongtan-truffle-oil-curry/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
