Hanamidori Chicken, developed with the utmost care and attention to detail.
The history of Hanamitori began in 1949 when Mr. Yoshiharu Kawatsu, who was in charge of wholesale at a chicken wholesaler called Torizen in the Yoshizuka shopping street in eastern Hakata, opened a restaurant on the second floor of his store. While selling chicken, he encountered Mizutaki through relationships with a number of restaurants. Realizing that the secret to the delicious taste of Mizutaki was in the chicken itself, Hanamidori chicken was born with a unique breeding and feeding method. The nutritious soup is made with fresh chicken and mineral water using a particular recipe.
