Even though it is a tuna shop, 16 chicken cutlets!

Even though it has plenty of rich sauce, the batter is crispy. A masterpiece of a heaping sauce cutlet bowl that will satisfy the stomach of a gluttonous YouTuber! Actually, this is a new challenge of a long-established seafood restaurant "Kaichi" that has been around for about 80 years. "I want people who eat a lot to enjoy it," and I am also focusing on a big menu.

Not spoiled by the signboard of a long-established store, Mr. Tochinyoka Pepe carries the fourth generation and continues to challenge new things. I was touched by that attitude. There are other big menus. If you are confident in your stomach, please try it!

[Tama memo]

The beginning of Kaya was about 80 years ago.

Pepe's great-grandfather started selling vegetables and fish in a rear car,

Rear car → fish shop → supermarket → seafood restaurant

And have changed their appearance with the times.

Currently, the fourth generation Pepe is standing in the kitchen.

In 2023, when his grandfather, who had been supporting the kitchen, fell ill, he began to grasp kitchen knives in earnest.

It is said that even his grandfather, who was a craftsman and did not let him touch the knife easily, watched Pepe cutting sashimi with a smile.

Now my grandson holds the knife that my grandfather couldn't hold.

In 2025, SNS triggered visitors from all over the country, and even people came to see Pepe.

The day of the interview was coincidentally a typhoon.

Because it was a quiet store, I was able to touch the natural conversation and smile of the family.

Kaichi was able to connect the business that his great-grandfather started about 80 years ago while changing the shape of each era.

Free soft drinks, all-you-can-eat soft serve ice cream, we have been livening up the shop with various menu ideas,

Now it produces up to 16 heaped chicken cutlets.

Keep changing to protect.

If you know the story of the family, you will surely want to go see "Kaichi itself."

[I want to ask everyone]

16 chicken cutlets, how many would you get?

And those who have known Kaichi from a long time ago.

When I was a fishmonger.

When it was a supermarket.

The old menu.

Memories with your family.

Let me know in the comments.

I would be happy if I could leave the continuation of this store for 80 years in the comment section.

Thank you very much for reading to the end.

While eating and walking around Kanto mainly in Gunma,

Not only the deliciousness of the food,

The reason why this dish was born,

Who is guarding the store?

Why do people gather there?

I am aiming for a post that can convey that far.

If only I had known sooner.

We will continue to record local shops and people so that we can reduce even one such regret.

... Read more「加一」が約80年の歴史を歩みながら新しい挑戦を続ける様子は、私にとって非常に共感を呼びました。実際に訪れてみると、ただの老舗店ではなく「お客様に楽しんでもらいたい」という思いが随所に感じられます。 特に印象的だったのは、チキンカツ16枚が山盛りに盛られたソースカツ丼。濃厚なソースが衣にしっかり絡みながら、揚げたての衣は驚くほどサクサクで、どんどん食が進みます。このボリューム感は大食いの方はもちろん、友人や家族でシェアしても楽しめる満足度の高い一品です。 また、ぺぺさんが4代目として厨房に立ち、自身の家族の歴史や経験を大切にしながらも、お客様の喜びを第一に新たなメニュー開発に取り組んでいる姿勢には、地域の人々からの支持の厚さを感じました。昔魚屋だった頃からスーパー、そして海鮮料理店へと形を変えてきた店は、今もソフトドリンクやソフトクリームのサービス、さらにはインスタ映えするデカ盛りメニューなど、時代に合わせて変化し続けています。 私も訪問時には、店内の温かい空気の中で家族の会話や店主の人柄に触れられ、料理の味だけでなく店の歴史と魅力を深く実感。こうしたストーリー性が加わることで、一層食事の価値が高まると感じました。 デカ盛りメニューに挑戦したい方はもちろん、地元栃木の伝統と新しい試みを味わいたい方にぜひおすすめできるお店です。次回訪れる際は、他のデカ盛りメニューも制覇したいと思います。皆さんはチキンカツ何枚まで食べられそうですか?ぜひ足利「加一」での体験を味わってみてください。
