The Appeal of Oyama Chicken Bonjiri Skewers, Packed with the Rich Flavor of the Ingredients
If you’re ever unsure which yakitori to choose, the first thing we recommend you try is the “Oyama Chicken Bonjiri Skewer.” This cut is a rare part of the chicken—only a small amount can be obtained from a single bird—and its defining feature is, without a doubt, the juicy, savory fat that bursts forth the moment you take a bite. To bring out the full potential of this ingredient, we offer it prepared two ways: with sauce and with salt. The rich, sweet sauce complements the natural sweetness of the fat, while the salt allows you to experience the ingredient’s true flavor directly. In the serene atmosphere of our private rooms, the moment you bring a skewer—carefully grilled one by one—to your lips is pure bliss. You can also compare it with other cuts, allowing you to fully savor the springy texture unique to Oyama-dori chicken. This experience is sure to be an opportunity to rediscover the depth and complexity of yakitori.
The Seasonal Flavors of Grilled "Ocho" Eggplant from Kumamoto Prefecture
When discussing the flavors of autumn, “Grilled Kumamoto-grown O-naga Eggplant” is an absolute must. The greatest appeal of this dish lies in the unique juiciness of the O-naga eggplant and the creamy, melt-in-your-mouth texture that is brought out by grilling. The simple method of grilling is a style we can offer only because we have complete confidence in the freshness and quality of our ingredients. The melt-in-your-mouth texture makes it an excellent palate cleanser between rich meat dishes, helping to regulate the pace at which you enjoy your drinks. On a leisurely evening spent in a private room, simply adding a seasonal vegetable dish like this dramatically enhances both the visual appeal and the overall satisfaction of the meal. The harmony between the ingredient’s natural sweetness and the toasty aroma from the grilling makes this a truly luxurious dish for adults. This is a masterpiece we confidently serve to those who wish to experience the changing seasons through food.
A Sweet Way to End the Evening with Fried Sweet Potatoes
To round out your meal, why not indulge in a sweet treat? Our “Fried Sweet Potatoes with Black Sugar Syrup and Mascarpone Whip” is a dessert that lets you enjoy the contrast in temperatures, featuring warm, freshly fried sweet potatoes topped with chilled mascarpone whip. The deep, rich flavor of the black sugar syrup ties the whole dish together and enhances that satisfying feeling after a meal. The fluffy texture of the sweet potato and the smooth mouthfeel of the whipped cream are gentle on the stomach after drinking, allowing you to enjoy it right to the very end without ever getting tired of it. Spending time chatting over dessert in the privacy of a private room is sure to deepen the lingering afterglow of your celebration. Please wrap up your fulfilling evening—nourishing both body and soul—with this dish, which stands apart from standard desserts and is packed with our restaurant’s unique touches.
