Saboten Express in BGC: An Authentic Tonkatsu House from Tokyo, Japan

The grand opening of MITSUKOSHI BGC in July 2023 opened the gates to more Japanese shops, including restaurants that offer the irresistible flavors of Japan in the Philippines. One of these authentic Japanese eateries is Saboten Express, located at the Itadaki Food Court of MITSUKOSHI BGC!

Coming straight from Shinjuku, Tokyo in Japan, Saboten is known for being one of the largest Tonkatsu chains, serving crunchy cutlets of pork, chicken, and seafood since 1966.

The authentic tonkatsu house has also made its name in over eight countries in the world, including China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, South Korea, Thailand, Singapore, and even Canada.

Now, Filipinos can continue enjoying Saboten’s menu of breaded, deep-fried cutlets, popularly known as katsu in BGC, with branches in Serendra and a new location in MITSUKOSHI BGC!

Before savoring hearty katsu meals, start light the Japanese way! Saboten Express’ Agedashi Tofu is a must-try as it goes well with the flavors of tonkatsu and a refreshing gulp of Saboten’s alcoholic beverages.
