🔥One-of-a-kind Yakitori Experience from Wood Fire

Opened on June 18 at Kagurazaka Yakitori Tora 🥰

In the center of the store, there is a specially crafted grill "Yagura", exuding a commanding presence✨

The swirling flames and rising smoke, as well as the artisans’ skillful hands, can be enjoyed live in front of you 🔥

The wood used is carefully selected oak and cedar from Iwate, Fukushima, and Tochigi 🌲

Yakitori grilled over wood fire requires skill; hence few restaurants offer it. It envelops the ingredients in a strong flame, locking in the flavors and juices of free-range chicken 🐓✨

Unlike charcoal, you can enjoy juicy yakitori with a smoky fragrance unique to wood fires🥰

This time, I tried an omakase course with wood-grilled yakitori and premium free-flow 🍽️

We started with egg yolk marinated in rice bran, cucumber, and turnip✨

Today's chicken is Hakata chicken 🐓

The broth made from chicken bones, duck bones, kombu, and dried shiitake has a gentle taste, offering a comforting deliciousness 🥺

Yakitori is served in a flow course style,
always delivering freshly grilled skewers one by one ✨

🐓Thigh
Chewy and juicy💗

🐓Heart
After a crunchy texture, the rich flavor spreads✨

🐓Breast
Amazingly tender🥺

🐓Wing
Falls off the bone gently—it’s my first time having wings like this…💕

🐓Liver
With a creamy mouthfeel,
it’s as smooth as cream🤤

🍄Shiitake
Shiitake on top of shiitake mixed with shio koji—packed with umami, it’s at a wow level 🥺

🥚Porcini Chawanmushi
Smooth and rich✨
Almost drinkable in its deliciousness 💗

🥒Zucchini
Hot and fluffy with a hint of sweetness🥰

🐓Hakata Chicken Tataki
Irresistibly chewy texture✨

🐓Heart
The chewy texture is addictive 💕

🧅Green onions
Perfectly grilled with sweetness✨

🥚"Chouchin"
The runny, rich yolk overflows with happiness🤤

To cleanse the palate,

The final dish offers a choice between ramen or curry 🍜🍛

Whole wheat noodles provide a satisfying chew to enjoy until the very end 🥰

Dessert is coffee jelly ☕️

The unique aroma of the wood fire and the live ambiance, combined with the amazing flavors of free-range chicken, made for an outstanding course 💗
