[Breakfast in front of Kokura Station] From 7am to 11am! A pork soup set meal specialty restaurant (Kitakyushu City)

Hello. This is Chihi Log, a casual website that provides information about Fukuoka, with a focus on gourmet food.

This time, we will introduce you to a breakfast specialty restaurant that serves delicious pork soup, which is currently a hot topic in Kokura.

Orders accepted from 7am to 11am! Tonton Byoshi, a breakfast-only pork soup set meal specialty restaurant (Kyomachi, Kokurakita Ward, Kitakyushu City)

"Tontonbyoshi" is located about a 3-minute walk from JR Kokura Station and Kokura Castle Exit (South Exit). It is conveniently located near the station.

This breakfast specialty restaurant, which specializes in pork soup made with Goto pork, is scheduled to open in November 2022.

The bar rents space from BAR HORN and is open from 7am to noon (last orders at 11am) (it closes once the pork soup is sold out).

The interior of the store has a very stylish atmosphere.

By the way, the reason for opening this restaurant was that the owner was so impressed by the deliciousness of Goto pork that he wanted people to enjoy it in a pork soup.

Full of nutrition! Delicious pork soup set meal

There are two types of menu items: "Tonton Breakfast" (1,100 yen) and "Luxurious Breakfast" (1,400 yen).

This time, I ordered the "Luxurious Breakfast" which includes pork soup (contents change monthly), white rice, addictive boiled egg, soy pulp salad, pickles, and two rice accompaniments (contents change monthly).

By the way, the "Ton Ton Breakfast" does not come with the two side dishes that go with the rice.

The kettle contains something called "veggie broth."

It is a combination of the words veggie (vegetables) and broth (stock), and refers to a stock made by simmering vegetables.

The types change every month, but about five different types of vegetables are used each month, making for a delicious, wholesome taste.

This soup stock will be poured into the pork soup bowls later, but first pour it into a cup and enjoy the taste of the soup stock alone.

This is a plate topped with addictive boiled eggs, soy pulp salad, pickles (celery on this day), and two side dishes to go with the rice.

The monthly rice accompaniments are made in line with "Magowayasashii" and convey the owner's desire to "make your body healthy." The rice accompaniments for May 2024 are "Sweet and spicy stir-fried garlic sprouts" and "Enoki mushroom and fish sausage namul."

Other dishes include the addictive boiled eggs, soy pulp salad, and pickles, all of which are exquisite dishes that make the most of the flavor of the ingredients.

And the main dish is pork soup.

The ingredients change every month, and in May they are green beans and potatoes. *The photo is from a previous month.

The miso is a combination of several different types, and the contents change every month.

You can enjoy different flavors of ingredients and miso every month.

After putting the miso into the bowl, pour in the veggie broth from the kettle yourself. *For the photo shoot, we asked the owner to pour it for us.

The leftover veggie broth can be drunk as is, or poured over rice to make a delicious ochazuke-style dish!

The pork soup, made with a broth packed with the flavors of several types of miso and vegetables, has a rich and deep flavor that is irresistible. The Goto pork is moist and tender, with a hint of sweetness. It is light yet full of meaty flavor, and after just one bite, you'll understand why the owner was so impressed by its deliciousness that he opened the restaurant.

By the way, "Tontonbachi" is a project I planned called "Torimachi Shokudo Street Reconstruction Support: Eat in Kitakyushu and Donate"Click here for details) participating stores.

If you purchase the "Miso Ball (4-piece set)" (1,000 yen), you can donate 400 yen. When they previously sold a limited run of 100 servings, they apparently sold out within a month, so if you're interested, be quick.
