Menchi Katsu is deep-fried ground meat patties with chopped onions and seasonings.  It is a popular western food from butcher shops and delis in Japan just like Korokke.  Menchi Katsu tastes like a hybrid of Hamburger Steak and Tonkatsu.  Inside is juicy hamburger, and outside is crunchy Panko crust.  Even though Menchi Katsu is categorized as a “B class” cheap dish, freshly fried Menchi Katsu is as good as expensive steaks! … or at least we think so.
