The juicy, umami and tender meaty sirloin is said to be the perfect part to taste as a thick-sliced beef cutlet because it has moderate fat and less dryness. However, it is usually difficult to provide "sirloin beef steak" because of the cost and the difficulty of cooking. However, the store has achieved this by taking advantage of its unique purchasing route and "researched" cooking methods.

One of the specialties of the cooking method is "fried time". It seems that the frying time is only 1 minute to make it a "super rare juicy" finish that shines red. In addition, the batter does not use "binder" eggs, but is sprinkled with original bread crumbs made from rice flour and fried, so the batter does not absorb oil and is said to have a thin, "crispy" mouthfeel.

Wasabi, salt, and soy sauce are prepared for the beef cutlet "Tsukedare," and "meringue egg," which is a meringue-shaped white meat topped with yolk, is also sold as a topping.
