| Skewers (Tokyo) - Japan 2024 |
During our 2024 trip to Japan we ate at two skewer (yakitori) restaurants, one in Tokyo and one in Kyoto. However and alas, I didn't keep any record of the names of the restaurants! But I wanted to have a record of them on the blog.
Above, photos of our Tokyo restaurant that I found by doing a Google search of "skewers near me." After a short walk using our iPhones we came to a busy street, looked for the restaurant, didn't see it, walked back and forth a while before realizing that it was on an upper floor accessed via elevator. As I recall, the food was nice enough . . . we were somewhat constrained in ordering because I was still getting over my "bug." No beer!

Below, photos taken in Kyoto. We found the restaurant by walking around our neighborhood. This time, no constraints! Beer!
The corn was unusual . . . very good. Other items were quite tasty. Like I said above, didn't get the name of the place. Note to self: keep a dining journal next time!

Got an email from our friend Bob in regards to the post:
I was looking at your photo blog today and saw the yakitori restaurant
photos. You said you didn't write down the names. I saw that label
"Specialty Kizokuyaki" and wondered (being a bit of a foodie, though not
Hali's level) what kind of skewer this was. This is what I found when I
looked it up: "Kizokuyaki is a jumbo, signature yakitori from the
Japanese chain Torikizoku." Could Torikizoku have been the Tokyo restaurant?
My reply: Certainly could have been!
