Yabaton Yaba-cho Main store

It is a famous store of Nagoya's well known "Miso-katsu" founded in 1947. The Tonkatsu is covered with sauce made from naturally brewed bean miso from Aichi prefecture that has been aged for a year and a half. They use high-quality pork meat from Southern Kyushu, which is sweet and tender. The most popular menu is the “Waraji Tonkatsu”which is about 22 cm large in size. The set meal"Gokujo Rib Teppan Tonkatsu Teishoku"(Superb Ribbed Teppan Tonkatsu Set Meal) is also popular, as it is served on a teppan (a hot iron plate) and allows you to enjoy the heated Misokatsu until the end of the meal.

The store was founded as a popular diner in 1947, shortly after the war. There are various theories, but it is said that the beginning of Misokatsu was when one of the customers dipped Kushikatsu in Dote-nabe(hot pot containing miso sauce).
Today there are more than 10 stores in Aichi Prefecture including branches in Tokyo and Osaka. Each store is crowded mainly at lunch time, but the waiting time of 8 stores in the Nagoya area is displayed in real time on their website, so you can aim for a vacant store.

There is also an antenna shop in the main store where you can enjoy the taste of Yabaton at home and buy goods featuring the mascot character "Boo-chan".
