What image comes to mind when you hear Chicken Tataki? It's an exquisite dish where fresh chicken is seared on the surface, locking in its savory aroma and umami. Its profound flavor has an unforgettable charm that you'll never forget once you taste it. At our restaurant, we strive daily to offer this Chicken Tataki in its finest form to our guests here in Minami-Kusatsu.

To ensure our customers can enjoy our chicken dishes with peace of mind and to their heart's content, we use only carefully selected chicken. Our skilled chefs assess the chicken's condition daily, meticulously prepare it by hand, and sear it quickly over a flame. The result is a blissful dish that is crispy and fragrant on the outside, moist and tender on the inside, while concentrating the chicken's inherent elasticity and umami.

• Thorough Freshness Control: We use fresh chicken sourced daily, delivering it in peak condition.

Savoring Chicken Tataki to the Fullest, with Seasonal Flair

Colors and Flavors Woven by the Season

While Chicken Tataki is our proud specialty year-round, one of its charms is how it presents a different character with each season. We cherish Japan's rich four seasons and suggest seasonal ingredients to accompany our Chicken Tataki. This ensures that every visit brings new discoveries and delightful experiences.

For example, in spring, the bitterness of new onions and rape blossoms harmonizes with the tataki's richness, creating a refreshing mouthfeel. In summer, you can enjoy a light flavor with our special sauce generously seasoned with herbs or by squeezing citrus fruits. Autumn adds depth with mushrooms and root vegetables, while winter allows you to fully savor the rich umami of chicken, warming your body with yuzu pepper and ginger.

• Spring: Fresh flavor with sliced new onions and blanched rape blossoms.
• Summer: Refreshing with generous toppings of herbs like myoga ginger, perilla leaves, and grated ginger, served with homemade citrus ponzu.
• Autumn: Creating a deep flavor with fragrant sautéed mushrooms or chestnuts as an accent.
• Winter: Enjoying a rich flavor while warming your body by squeezing seasonal yuzu or adding spicy daikon radish.
