Manchester’s sandwich game has been significantly raised with the arrival of the Katsu Sando.<\/p>\n
New Wave Ramen, who opened their space at Mackie Mayor in July, are the first to bring this Instagram-famous sandwich to Manchester.<\/p>\n
Although it sounds a bit like Mancunian slang, ‘sando’ is what sandwiches are commonly referred to as in Japan.<\/p>\n
Traditionally made using shokupan (Japanese milk bread), they can be filled with an array of ingredients including meat, egg and even fruit.<\/p>\n
The Katsu Sando was first made famous in the UK by London restaurant Tata Eatery.<\/p>\n
And, ever since we saw their version take over Instagram feeds, we’ve been hoping some one in Manchester would bring this beauty of a sandwich a little closer to home.<\/p>\n

Well, this one certainly didn’t disappoint.<\/p>\n
Alongside their menu of ‘craft ramen’ and other Japanese dishes like bao buns, the Katsu Sando is latest addition to New Wave Ramen’s ever-evolving menu.<\/p>\n
Described as ‘the perfect lunchtime treat’, the sandwich consists of consists of toasted brioche, crumbed pork belly, plum tonkatsu and a zesty yuzu cabbage slaw.<\/p>\n
There are limited numbers of this dish available every day, so make sure you get down to Mackie Mayor before they go.<\/p>\n
Mackie Mayor is not taking bookings so it’s walk-ins only from 11am to 10pm Tuesday to Friday, 9am to 10pm on Saturday, 9am to 6pm on Sunday and closed on Mondays.<\/p>\n
