Sangam-dong katsu lunch: salt, kosho and truffle sauce at Kitto

Kitto is a Japanese-style katsu restaurant in the Sangam-dong food alley across from DDMC in Mapo, Seoul. For lunch, Kitto's sirloin katsu (15,000 won) and tenderloin katsu (16,000 won) came with curry and fried shrimp at 4,000 won each, tasted the way the menu suggests: plain first, then with natural Maldon salt, then with kosho, wasabi and truffle tonkatsu sauce. Even my husband, a die-hard old-school donkatsu fan, said we should come back to Kitto.
