ACACIA Shinjuku honten

2 minutes on foot from JR Shinjuku East Exit. Went to "Acacia," a long-established Western restaurant founded in Showa 38 (1963)! The interior is retro yet stylish — a space like time-slipping to the Showa era 🌿 Arriving Saturday 10:50, more than 10 groups already waiting, but with opening I entered smoothly ◎ (There's a 2nd floor too, so turnover seems fast, but the line was constant.) There are also solo seats — could go alone without hesitation ☺️ ⸻ 🥄 Of course the recommendation is the cabbage roll! └ Beef, pork, chicken, wheat, alcohol The melty white sauce-wrapped cabbage roll, reminiscent of stew. It looks creamy but is actually dairy-free — shocking! 😳 The sauce is meat!! and packed with vegetable umami — pairs excellently with rice 🍚✨ ⸻ 🍽 This time chose "Kurobuta Mincekatsu"! └ Pork, wheat, eggs, alcohol Very large mince katsu! The relatively thin Kurobuta mince katsu uses eggs and wheat, but you can directly taste the crunchy crust and juicy meat umami! Side is shredded cabbage and mayo-dressed? pasta 🥗 When I visited before, there was no allergen display. Now it's become a shop allergy-affected kids can use, with thoughtful accommodation — a happy point 😌💕
