- Selection and procurement of key ingredients such as pork, breadcrumbs, and oil in the local market.
- Verification of the compatibility of kitchen equipment and cooking environments.
- Verification of cooking process reproducibility through joint cooking with local staff.
It was confirmed that quality equivalent to that in Japan can be ensured, from ingredient procurement to the minute details of the cooking process.
Future Prospects
Table Bridge will continue to advance specific operational construction and contract management for the Taiwan store opening. The company remains committed to supporting the faithful reproduction of Tonkatsu Narikura's one-of-a-kind dining experience overseas.
