Another Japanese restaurant has withdrawn from Taiwan! The nearly 100-year-old Japanese “Ginza Meilin Pork Chop” has only been in Taiwan for 3 years, but yesterday (1st) it was announced to turn off the lights without warning. The sudden news made Hsinchu people quite collapsed, and they said that the strongest pork chop in Jucheng was gone.
Ginza Bairin Pork Cutlet, which is very popular in Japan, was founded in 1927. It is the first pork cutlet specialty store in Ginza. Its fried pork cutlets, pork cutlet sandwiches and pork cutlet set meals are widely loved by the public. It also entered Taiwan in March 2020 and settled in the giant city of Hsinchu, becoming the favorite tonkatsu restaurant of the locals.
Unexpectedly, the official Facebook suddenly issued an announcement on the 1st, saying that due to the expiration of the counter contract, the business will be closed immediately, and thank customers for their support over the years. Since Ginza Meilin only opened its store in Hsinchu following coming to Taiwan, it is equivalent to evacuating Taiwan following the lights are turned off. Those who want to eat in the future can only eat it by flying to Japan.
The sudden news also surprised many local people, asking “Will it be opened in other places?”, “The strongest pork chop in Jucheng is gone”, “I plan to eat it next week”, “It’s a pity”.
