Airport Izakaya

Yes, we know that we sound crazy for saying this, but hear us out first! Ever since Saboten’s branch in the departures food court closed a few years ago, there has been no way to get your tonkatsu fix before taking off. And while it’s true that Airport Izakaya isn’t actually located inside the airport, it does come pretty close. The unfortunate news is that their tonkatsu, stellar as it is, is on the pricier end of the spectrum compared to other options on this list – the Kurobuta tonkatsu will set you back a hefty $328 – although it can be significantly cheaper as a part of their lunch set. If you ever find yourself suddenly overcome with a soul-crushing need for deep-fried pork after checking your luggage in, this is definitely the place to go.
