About this spot
In Ueno's bustling Asakusa neighborhood, Paichi delivers massive, crispy pork cutlets that are thick enough to double as a shield against the cold. You must order the Assorted Set to sample their famous Caniccroquette alongside the juicy Katsu and small Ebi Fry in one go. The restaurant serves these hearty Yoshoku classics with simple miso soup and rice, making it a perfect fuel stop before exploring the area.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order the Assorted Set immediately to get your hands on the unique Caniccroquette without waiting for separate items.
- Ask for extra pickles or mustard if you need to cut through the richness of the thick pork cutlet.
- Visit early in the day as the menu rotates with seasonal seafood like hotate (scallop) and kaki (oyster).
