Chako Bakery Cafe

Chako is a cute little place on Main in Covington, with a small selection of lunch plates, breads and cake.The sandwiches here do not disappoint, with its thick cut of pork or chicken. The tonkatsu didn’t have its traditional panko crust as far as I could tell, but it was still great. Definitely more than filling for a simple lunch.Something that was confusing was the “karaage sando”, which does not mean a sandwich and side of karaage, but instead essentially refers to chicken katsu sandwich.

It was absolutely delicious!! The kaarage was very juicy, and the salmon onigiri was extra flavorful! We drove an hour to come here, and the staff was very nice and friendly as I stumbled my way through a conversation in japanese. Will come here every chance I get!

Very kind staff and wonderful Japanese style bakery. What can go wrong?
