I grabbed lunch on Friday at Wako Donkatsu, which is next door to the Boiling Crab on Wilshire Blvd. [Now, this is donkatsu and not tonkatsu because we're in Ktown.] I ordered the orosi donkatsu which comes piled high with grated daikon radish and scallions, and is served with a thinner jus-like dipping sauce. Honestly, the radish was overkill (it’s literally just radish), so I would recommend the regular pork or chicken cutlet, which comes with the thicker dipping sauce for which you grind your own sesame seeds in a personal mortar and pestle. You get a side of soy-pickled jalapenos too, a Korean banchan that I love for its taekwondo kick of spicy, salty & sour. One of my favorites. Portions are hefty, so definitely work up an appetite before you plop down for this fried cutlet fix.
