Tonkatsu in Dangha-dong with my pregnant wife: set for 2, HOKATSU

HOKATSU is a Japanese restaurant specializing in tonkatsu, gyukatsu and ramen in Dangha-dong, Geomdan, Incheon. A husband and his pregnant wife, who had rarely eaten tonkatsu since the pregnancy, shared the HOKATSU set for 2 (gyukatsu, assorted katsu and ramen) at a late weekend lunch, and the cheese katsu, mini-brazier gyukatsu and spicy tonkotsu ramen left them both satisfied. For couples who want to share several dishes, the HOKATSU set for 2 is a good fit.
