Answering the Key Questions of Minami-Kusatsu Yakitori: How to Find a Truly Delicious Skewer

- I'm not sure which restaurant is good. I don't want to be disappointed.
- Since I'm going out, I want to enjoy the taste of meticulously chosen ingredients.

The Essence of Minami-Kusatsu Yakitori: The Special Experience We Offer
The value we provide as a Minami-Kusatsu Yakitori restaurant transcends mere cuisine. It is an experience that stimulates the five senses, a fusion of Shiga's rich blessings and the passion of our artisans. To provide the best yakitori, we cherish two fundamental pillars.
An Unwavering Commitment to Omi Chicken
Shiga Prefecture's brand chicken, Omi Chicken, is raised with care in a rich natural environment. It is characterized by its fine meat texture, pleasant firmness, and above all, a deep and elegant umami. To bring out the full potential of this Omi Chicken, we source it fresh daily and apply the optimal preparation for each part. For example, the thigh meat is prepared to enhance its juiciness, while the breast meat is treated to let you enjoy its delicate flavor. By understanding the unique character of each part and skewering it in its best condition, we pursue a taste that brings a wave of delight with every bite.
The Flavor of Binchotan Charcoal-Grilled Yakitori, Polished by Flames
Our yakitori is grilled slowly over carefully selected Binchotan charcoal. The powerful far-infrared effect of Binchotan charcoal quickly sears the surface of the chicken, locking in the moisture and umami inside. This unique heat source creates yakitori that is crispy and fragrant on the outside, yet surprisingly juicy on the inside. Furthermore, the rich aroma unique to Binchotan charcoal infuses the chicken, giving it a profound flavor you won't find elsewhere. Our skilled chefs converse with the flames, carefully grilling each skewer to perfection, which is how our blissful Minami-Kusatsu Yakitori, an experience unique to our restaurant, is born.
