Rare review 4!!!! Excellent restaurant in terms of taste, portion size, and cost performance. A casual place to relax in Asakusa. The atmosphere is filled with a Showa era vibe, which is nice! The specialty "Original Chicken Basket" includes chicken tenderloin cutlet, potatoes, pickles, and toast. You can enjoy each item separately or make a sandwich with them. The tenderloin cutlet is reminiscent of Imakatsu in Higashi-Ginza, with a moist and tender texture. The coating is crispy and fried in lard, giving it a good aroma. Another specialty, the "Original Pork Cutlet Sandwich," consists of double cutlets, cabbage, and toast. The two layers of cutlets are divided into fatty and lean parts, creating a harmonious balance. The juiciness of the fatty part, the umami of the lean part, and the supporting role of the cabbage come together to create a blissful experience. Let's not forget the deliciousness of the toast itself. Personally, I recommend the "Egg Sandwich." It has a unique shape, not like egg salad or omelette, but a perfectly cooked soft-boiled egg. The yolk and white are fresh and the softness is just right. The addition of mayonnaise adds a tangy flavor, creating an original taste. Asakusa is known for its long-established cafes, but for me, when it comes to sandwiches, this place is the best. I now feel like trying all the menu items here. I will definitely come back again. Thank you for the meal.

Brazil, a long-established coffee shop in Asakusa, I've always wanted to try their cheese toast, but after hearing from a follower that their tonkatsu sandwich is amazing, I decided to visit for that. The shop had a retro atmosphere beyond my imagination, and the staff, especially the older lady, worked efficiently, which was impressive. Original tonkatsu sandwich - ¥1200 Iced cafe au lait - ¥600 It's unbelievable... you have to try it to understand, but it's a billion times more delicious than you can imagine... the fluffy bread, perfectly crispy on the outside... it must have been fluffy bread... with thinly sliced cabbage that's just the right amount salty, and a sophisticated sauce... and the tonkatsu that melts even the fatty parts... it's a perfect tonkatsu sandwich that makes you want to eat it even when sharing with someone else... once you try it, you won't be able to forget it... when you visit Asakusa, be sure to try it out.

Visited around 13:30 on a holiday. This long-established place is located inside an arcade. Went upstairs and entered the shop. Ordered from the punchy staff auntie. The dishes are nothing special, but give off a traditional old-fashioned coffee shop menu vibe. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.

In Asakusa, there are many long-established coffee shops, and this shop in the Shin-Nakamise Shopping Street is one of them. They are closed on Wednesdays, and also have other days off. For example, in July, they are closed on the 5th, 12th, 13th, 19th, and 26th. Their opening hours are from 9:00 am to 3:30 pm, and they only accept cash. Today's order: - The popular original pork cutlet sandwich - Iced coffee The pork cutlet sandwich consists of two layers of crispy bread, a secret sauce, hand-cut shredded cabbage, and two layers of pork cutlet. The crispy coating of the pork cutlet goes well with the sweet secret sauce, and the shredded cabbage plays a supporting role perfectly. I usually order the toast set or the B lunch fried chicken, so this time I decided to try something different. The staff are not intimidating, just efficient, and everyone is friendly. After a 20-minute wait (the serving time varies depending on the situation), the iced coffee and the original pork cutlet sandwich arrived. The pork cutlet is thinly sliced, but when doubled up, it's quite substantial. I managed to finish it easily, but those with smaller appetites may find it challenging to finish. Asakusa was bustling with many people on this day, and it's great to see the lively atmosphere return. Thank you for the meal.

Hidden gem in Asakusa! The sandwiches at Ginza Brazil are truly beautiful and delicious. I usually go for the pork cutlet sandwich and cheese toast, but this time I tried the egg and ham sandwich. Delicious! Just look at how beautiful the cross-section is!!! It takes a bit of time from ordering to being served since they are made by one person in the kitchen, but it's worth the wait because it's just so delicious.

I wandered around wondering what to have for breakfast, and ended up at a place after being turned away from the first two places I tried. As soon as I walked in, the staff were giving instructions in a loud and clear voice. To be honest, their loud voice made me feel a bit intimidated. The people I was with said they were hungry and ordered egg sandwiches and pork cutlet sandwiches. After about 10 minutes, the light meals arrived, which were quite substantial for light meals. I had a bite of the egg sandwich they shared with me, and it had just the right amount of flavor. I ordered a soda float, which I liked because of the contrast between the white and green colors. There were no cherries. I thought it was a great place to casually stop by with friends.

I had been wanting to try the "original pork cutlet sandwich" that I first read about in a magazine a long time ago at "Ginza Brazil" in Asakusa. I have visited this place several times before, but it was always closed, so I never had the chance to try it until today. This restaurant was established in Ginza in 1948 and opened a branch in Asakusa in 1968. Currently, they only operate the Asakusa branch, which is a long-established coffee shop. I ordered the "original pork cutlet sandwich and coffee" of course. I visited in the morning, and although there were many options for morning set menus, there was no cutlet sandwich set. As indicated by the notice, it took 30 minutes to wait for the cutlet sandwich to be served. The long-awaited cutlet sandwich was made with juicy pork cutlets stacked on top of each other, finely shredded cabbage sandwiched between perfectly toasted bread, and the sauce was well incorporated. Despite its thickness, it was surprisingly easy to eat and very delicious and substantial! The visual presentation was also great. I was impressed by the timing of when the cutlet sandwich was served along with the coffee. This kind of consideration is a sign of a "good restaurant." The slightly larger coffee cup with the restaurant's name on it was original, and the coffee was fragrant, rich, and delicious! Furthermore, I was surprised to see a small kitchen behind the coffee counter, where a proper chef was cooking. "They are frying the pork cutlets and fried chicken there! That's why the pork cutlets are crispy and juicy without any unpleasant oiliness. They are cooking them freshly!" I was moved by this. This long-established restaurant has been preserving its tradition for over half a century, and the high level of customer service is commendable. It was a wonderful coffee shop where you could feel the sophisticated consideration and spirit that was born in Ginza and raised in Asakusa.

Ordered the most popular pork cutlet sandwich, chicken fry, and mixed sandwich. It seemed like a lot, but after waiting for about 40 minutes, they arrived looking delicious. The chicken cutlet was crispy! The pork cutlet sandwich had a juicy pork cutlet, and the mixed sandwich had a well-balanced combination of meat, vegetables, and egg. The dishes were worth the wait.

I had an iced coffee and the original pork cutlet sandwich. I arrived around 9:30 and was told there was a one-hour wait for food (those who came after me had to wait one and a half hours). However, the freshly made cutlet sandwich was crispy and juicy, making the wait worthwhile.

On a regular day off, I went for a stroll in Asakusa and decided to check out the Brazilian restaurant I had been curious about. As soon as I entered, the atmosphere exuded a sense of tradition as I climbed the stairs. The mama at the entrance bluntly said, "If you want to eat, be prepared to wait for an hour. If you can handle that, come on in!" Initially taken aback by her brusque manner, I reminded myself that this was old-school Asakusa. I figured the wait wouldn't actually be an hour, so I decided to go in. I ordered the famous katsu sandwich and fried chicken basket set, and sure enough, I ended up waiting for a full hour. However, the wait was worth it for the delicious food! The fluffy fried chicken came with thick slices of bread, making for a satisfyingly filling meal. The katsu sandwich, eaten sideways, was also delicious with the cabbage acting as a sauce. By the time I left, feeling full, the mama apologized for making me wait so long in a friendly, tsundere manner. It's these kinds of experiences that make me want to come back again.

Hello, everyone. I would like to write about the fried chicken and pork cutlet sandwich I ate at a café the other day. I decided to go to the "Ginza Brazil Asakusa Branch" after much deliberation. The café had a classic atmosphere with soft orange lighting, and the friendly older female staff added to the charm. I ordered the fried chicken basket and pork cutlet sandwich, along with a cup of blended coffee. The food took about 30 minutes to arrive, but it was worth the wait. The fried chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, with a refreshing taste. The thick toast with pickles on top added a nice contrast. The pork cutlet sandwich was also delicious, with two tender cutlets and a generous portion. The blended coffee had a strong aroma and a slightly bitter taste that complemented the meal perfectly. Overall, I was very satisfied with the food and the cozy atmosphere of the café. I recommend visiting when you have some time to spare and enjoy a leisurely meal. Thank you for the delicious food.

#Asakusa Morning I finally tried the morning menu at a long-established coffee shop in Asakusa that I've been curious about. Ginza Brazil Asakusa Store ☕ Even though it's in Asakusa, it feels like Ginza, and even though it's in Japan, it has a Brazilian vibe. It seems like they used to have a store in Ginza as well. I arrived at 9:30 on a weekday. Excitedly, I climbed the narrow staircase to the 2nd floor. There were two groups of customers already there. We chose to sit at the table by the staircase. Our goal was to try the original Rosukatsu Sandwich (1200 yen) and the Cheese Toast (980 yen)! There was a set menu available, but we wanted to try these two items, so we ordered them separately. The Cheese Toast is limited to one per group. I had the blend coffee (450 yen), and my friend had the iced coffee (450 yen). The retro atmosphere of the interior was charming. The coffee cups even had the shop's name on them, which was stylish. It was nice to see elderly male regular customers coming and going. First, they served the Cheese Toast. It wasn't the melty cheese commonly used on pizza but regular cheese slices cut and placed on top of the bread. It seemed like they toasted the cheese separately before putting it on the toast, resulting in a perfect crispy and melty texture. When I took a bite, it was delicious!! I decided that I would make this style of Cheese Toast at home from now on. It was amazing! Just as we started eating the Cheese Toast, the Rosukatsu Sandwich arrived. It looked beautiful... Thin slices of pork cutlet with cabbage sandwiched between them. This Rosukatsu Sandwich was the best I've ever had ✨ It was somewhat moving. The pork cutlet was incredibly juicy with perfect cooking. It wasn't dry at all. The slightly sweet sauce... I wonder if it's a mix of ketchup and another sauce? The balance was amazing. The slices were quite large, so I debated whether to take a bite vertically or horizontally, but either way, it was a challenge to eat in one bite. I couldn't finish the Rosukatsu Sandwich alone... but I wanted to try both, so I might come back with a friend. The staff commented, "It's quite a hearty meal for the morning," and when I replied, "It's a long-cherished desire!! It's incredibly delicious!!" they smiled happily. They advised that it gets crowded during lunch, so it was a good decision to come early. If you want to relax, be sure to come early. #Breakfast #Morning #喫茶店Morning #GinzaBrazil #OriginalRosukatsuSandwich #RosukatsuSandwich #CheeseToast #Coffee #☕ #Sandwich #LongEstablishedCoffeeShop #CoffeeShop #AsakusaMorning #AsakusaGourmet #TimeDifferencePost

This coffee shop, which has been in business for over 70 years, is named Ginza, which is a remnant of the fact that the original flagship store was in Ginza. Personally, I love the sandwiches here so much that I crave them regularly. They are beautifully presented and generously filled with ingredients. On this day, since there were two of us, we also tried the famous cheese toast. The crispy surface of the processed cheese and the thick, crispy outside and fluffy inside of the toast complement each other perfectly, and above all, it goes amazingly well with coffee. The staff, who have a real old-fashioned neighborhood auntie vibe, are also something I personally like. 😊

I had been curious about this restaurant for a while. It was a chance to have a leisurely lunch in Asakusa, so I decided to visit. Of course, I ordered the pork cutlet sandwich!! I wanted to have it with iced coffee to refresh myself, but I had already had a strong coffee in the morning, so I opted for an iced cafe au lait instead. It may have taken a while to make after ordering, but the old-fashioned coffee shop atmosphere and being told to sit by the window watching people passing by under the arcade made the time pass quickly. The atmosphere was so calm that it didn't feel like the bustling Asakusa at all. Now, about the pork cutlet sandwich, my first impression was that it looked thin?! However, the two layers of cutlets were very juicy. The sauce with plenty of ketchup spread on top was delicious, and the very thin cabbage was soft from the oil of the cutlet, making it easy to eat. The thickness was very well balanced. However, there might have been a bit too much fat for a pork cutlet. The size of the cafe au lait was a bit small for 600 yen, it would have been better if it was a bit larger. There were few tourists, and it seemed to be a tea gathering place for local ladies. The staff asked how many people were there today in a friendly manner. Even for a first-time visitor like me, they were polite. Asakusa has become more known for Instagrammable spots and food walks (although it is prohibited), but this restaurant was a very good place to spend a relaxing time. Thank you for the meal.

I have visited this place before, and as expected, the staff told me that they hope I come back regularly, and here I am again. I ordered cheese toast and a pork cutlet sandwich. The cheese toast was apparently popular on social media at one point, and it was delicious, but I personally prefer the pork cutlet sandwich! It has a crispy, thin toast with two layers of pork cutlet, and it makes me feel extremely happy. However, when I entered, they confirmed that it takes about 30 minutes for the food to be served after ordering. The drinks also come with the toast, so there is about 30 minutes of waiting time with nothing to do. But it's so delicious, so if you have time to spare, definitely give it a try!

◼️Previous Foodlog Rating: 3.58 (May 2023) Genre: Cafe/Sandwich ◼️Overall Impression I absolutely love this place! The sandwiches here are amazing, some of the best I've ever had. I highly recommend the Chicken Basket and the Pork Cutlet Sandwich! If you have room, definitely try the Egg Sandwich too! The Cheese Toast is also popular. The food here surpasses the typical cafe fare with its skilled cooking techniques and perfectly balanced flavors. The portions are generous, and the prices are reasonable. ◼️What I Ate - Original Fried Chicken Basket (1200 yen) - Original Pork Cutlet Sandwich (1200 yen) - Egg Sandwich (980 yen) - Budweiser beer (700 yen x 2) ◆Original Fried Chicken Basket (1200 yen) This was amazing! Even though I usually don't like chicken breast, the chicken here was so tender and moist, not dry at all! It was flavorful and light, not heavy at all. You can adjust the seasoning with the salt on the table. The thick slices of bread with plenty of margarine were a great accompaniment. The pickled onions and carrots added a refreshing touch. The portion size was satisfying, and the value for money was excellent. ◆Original Pork Cutlet Sandwich (1200 yen) This is the best pork cutlet sandwich in Japan, in my opinion. The thin, crispy cutlets were delicious, and the finely shredded cabbage balanced out the richness of the meat. The sandwich was well-crafted and perfectly put together. It may not look as delicious in the photos, but trust me, it was amazing! ◆Egg Sandwich (980 yen) The soft, runny eggs in this sandwich were of the highest quality. They looked delicious and tasted even better! If you want to try different varieties, the Mixed Sandwich with the egg sandwich included is also recommended. ◼️Portion Size You can rest assured that if you can't finish your meal, you can take the leftovers home. We ordered three dishes for two people, but one dish per person would be enough for most people. If you want to try a variety of items, it might be better to gather a larger group or summon me (I'm always ready to eat!). ◼️Service Speed The restaurant may be understaffed, so it's best to go when you have time to spare. Some people were told it would take about an hour, but we didn't have to wait that long when we went. There were reviews mentioning that you can only order food once, but I'm not sure if that's the case. ◼️Seating All seats are tables, and the restroom is Japanese-style, so it's best to use the restroom before entering the restaurant. ◼️Crowdedness It seems to vary depending on the day, but it can get busy, and they may sell out early, so it's best to go early. ◼️Customer Service Some reviews mentioned the typical Asakusa-style service, but when we went, we were greeted by a very friendly and beautiful lady. ◼️Difficulty for a Woman Dining Alone Easy!

During my visit in May (23.5), I decided to try the original Rosukatsu Sandwich, another signature menu item besides the Cheese Toast that I had last time. The original Rosukatsu Sandwich consists of crispy toast, crunchy breaded pork cutlet, juicy pork loin with a subtle sweetness, finely shredded cabbage for a gentle texture, Worcestershire sauce, all assembled perfectly for a delicious sandwich. The four slices of sandwich were quite filling and satisfying enough to serve as a meal. Menu for this visit: - Original Rosukatsu Sandwich - Blend Coffee (daytime) Price: 1650 yen per person Additional information about the restaurant: - This is a long-established coffee shop with over 70 years of history. The name "Ginza" in the shop's name is a remnant of the first store that was once located in Ginza. - The original Rosukatsu Sandwich and Cheese Toast are the signature menu items. Order for this visit: - Original Rosukatsu Sandwich: 1200 yen - Blend Coffee: 450 yen

I went there during the daytime on a regular day. The restaurant was not too crowded and it felt calm. There was a nice flow of people coming in and out, so it wasn't completely empty. The katsu sandwich was rich and flavorful. As I ate, I strangely felt full even with this amount. The staff kindly informed me that I could take the leftovers home if I couldn't finish it. It wasn't a one-drink policy, so I was able to just order the katsu sandwich that I wanted to eat.

[Café Brazil/#Asakusa] Original Rosu Katsu Sandwich 1200 yen------Passing through the strange underground passage of Asakusa Station, I arrived at the second floor of New Nakamise Street, overflowing with foreigners, at "Ginza Brazil." Not in Brazil or Ginza, but in Asakusa. Inside, there were local ladies having a lively chat. Strangely enough, they were talking about supernatural phenomena and ghosts. I enjoyed a surprisingly delicious katsu sandwich under an orange lamp, feeling as if I had been tricked by a fox. Is this a dream? #AsakusaVibes #CaféSpot------@manger______The katsu sandwich here is really delicious, so I want you to try it! It's my favorite food at a café! Let's go eat cheese toast and chicken together✨

Yesterday afternoon, my health suddenly deteriorated. I had to leave work early and went home to rest. When I woke up in the morning, I felt much better. I decided to go to the gym and then maybe to Starbucks, but it was full. On my way back, I passed by a Brazilian restaurant. It brought back memories of when I used to visit this place regularly during a period of not working. The atmosphere and the staff were just as I remembered, with a mix of young and older customers. I ordered the chicken basket and an iced coffee. While waiting for my food, I listened to music and enjoyed the nostalgic vibe of the place. When the chicken basket arrived, it was delicious as always. The juicy and tender chicken, along with the toast and sliced vegetables, made for a satisfying meal. Despite not visiting for 14 years, the taste and quality remained consistent. It was a great experience, and I realized why I used to frequent this place so often in the past. Overall, it was a fantastic meal, and I highly recommend it to others.

I visited a long-established coffee shop in Shin-Nakami Shotengai in search of a delicious breakfast. I ordered the original pork cutlet sandwich, which was top-notch in terms of taste. The crispy toast, cabbage, layers of pork cutlet with a good amount of fat, and sweet sauce all matched perfectly. Moreover, it paired very well with the bitter coffee.
