Kurobuta X Kombu & Oroshi from Tonkatsu by Ma Maison

Tonkatsu by Ma Maison, Kurobuta X Kombu & Oroshi teishoku

I had gotten the impression that the kombu component to this kurobuta rosu katsu at Tonkatsu by Ma Maison was some sort of shredded cabbage salad with the seaweed. Apparently not. It was dry and fine with texture somewhat similar to dragon beard candy (龙须糖) if you could believe it. Yep, that green stuff above the katsu was it. Underneath the pile of it was the oroshi

I've never had kombu in this form. Couldn't get much flavour of them. All the moisture from the oroshi had clumped the kombu together making it a little messy to eat. Didn't taste bad with the dashi/yuzu-y dip they provided though.
