MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View
One Star: High quality cooking
The name is short for ‘yakitori no saki’, meaning ‘the future of yakitori’, and a harbinger of things to come in the yakitori world is just what Torisaki aims to be. Using brand-name chicken from Fukushima, the chef and his team grill skewers of chicken over a high flame. A chicken skewer combining liver with chochin has become a signature item thanks to the affinity between the cuts used. The atmosphere of the machiya interior is nostalgic; the sight of the cooks in their twisted headbands a cheerful welcome.
