Local

The dish to look out for at Local is the Gen’esuke don: chicken katsu topped with nanban vinegar and house-made tartar sauce. The menu description also lists salad, a fried egg and mayonnaise, making this a rice bowl built around the tangy, sweet-and-sour cutlet. One reviewer ordered the Gen’nosuke don with an extra-large serving of rice, praising the crisp chicken katsu, tartar sauce and sweet vinegar soaking into the rice, as well as the rice itself. Another diner also recommended the combination of cutlet, sweet vinegar sauce and tartar, making it a good option for anyone keen to enjoy both the katsu and its toppings.

There are other chicken bowls, too. The Torichiki Mayo don combines fried chicken made with breast meat, soy sauce-based sauce, a fried egg and mayonnaise; diners can add shichimi pepper for a little heat. Choose between the chicken katsu with nanban vinegar and tartar, or fried chicken with soy sauce-based sauce, depending on which flavour combination appeals.

Lunch is served, and diners can eat in. The restaurant is also described as suitable for solo meals, so a rice bowl makes a straightforward lunch option. Payment is cash only.
