Chef Creations | Pork Katsu Curry

Katsu Curry is a popular dish from Japan and it is generally a main course. There have been a variety of variations and interpretations of what is a good Katsu Curry. The usual expectation is it had to be “crunchy” and the curry itself should not be dependent for the dish to be that good there had to be a balance between the dipping sauce and the food itself that made it that good.

The Chef Creations brand features a collaboration with 7-Eleven with a restaurant, a chef, or even a food community like Let’s Eat Pare is something to look forward to as the products they put out are both affordable and accessible to anyone. The third Curry meal from Let’s Eat Pare is certainly a favourite among the three…


The Pork Katsu Curry is that dish that certainly has been popular since its initial drop along with the other two curry dishes as part of 7-Eleven’s yearlong anniversary celebrating 40 years in the Philippines makes the convenience store relevant by putting out new and unique products each month has become something to look forward to whenever you visit the store or browse over their social media.

This third curry meal has been sold out and rarely getting a restock due to its immense popularity. There’s no doubt someone out there might just discover these meals and mise out because it’s not available at his or her nearby 7-Eleven Store.













Let’s Eat Katsu

There have been a lot of local takes on a Katsu Curry that consists of a pork cutlet (tonkatsu) served with a portion of Japanese rice and curry. It is served on a large plate and is typically eaten using a spoon or fork. The cutlet is usually pre-cut into strips, eliminating the need for a knife.**

But the portion of curry is just about right to be desired as some previous takes on the Katsu Curry like the volume or curry dipping sauce were not enough to suit those cutlets to be drowned and devoured with warm white rice sometimes fall short of the expectation that you need more curry sauce.







Pre-Sliced Goodness

It was unexpected that they pre-cut the tonkatsu into tiny bits that you think need to be in the curry already. It’s something you’d want to do more than anything once heated in the microwave. Though this one was not as crunchy as you’d expect it still delivers that Japanese authenticity right now to the texture and taste of the tonkatsu.

It is worth good for a second time unless your 7-Eleven doesn’t restock it as you’d hope for leaving you high and dry seeing the usual rice meals on their chiller and not even a rice curry meal on sight.









Overall, the Pork Katsu Curry is something that you need to pick up and have a good experience devouring it once they drop it on their chiller. Sometimes, in the wee hours of the morning, you may need to be the first to pick it up because its immediate popularity and affordability make it a sold-out product.

  • Food Quality: 4 out of 5

  • Overall: The texture and the way it was presented make it something you want to get before everyone else.
