The chef exactingly selects the very best skewers of the day so that diners may sample all of the various flavors in just one dish. You can enjoy chicken in other ways, here too, such as in the [Torigen Salad], accented with crispy fried chicken skin, or the [Deep-fried Bone-in Thigh Meat], a perfect choice if you're starving. There are many varieties of shochu available here, as well as the Okinawan liquor awamori, exceptionally good with chicken, so be sure to sample the selection!
