I wanted to eat yakitori, so I went to a yakitori restaurant. Here are some yakitori restaurants in Japan. The way of ordering is unique, so please learn from this and try it when you come to Japan.
I visited “Yamatoya” this time. It is a yakitori restaurant where you eat standing up. There are two areas: one is for a large group of people and the other is a counter area where you can eat alone.
At the counter, you talk to the waiter in front of you and place your order. In the large group area, please talk to the waiter who is hanging around.
Most yakitori restaurants will ask about seasoning. Many yakitori restaurants will ask for seasoning, either tare or shio. Tare is sweet and spicy. Shio (salt) is a refreshing seasoning with Japanese poppy seeds. The restaurant is crowded, so please speak loudly.
Yakitori is cooked to order, so expect it to take some time.
This is a unique place to start. Originally, the bill is paid at once after you have ordered, but at this restaurant, you pay in cash for each order. So please have cash ready.
When you are ready, put the food in a colander. The change will be returned to the colander.
The kitchen is always busy. The washed glasses are immediately filled with drinks again and served.
This method is not often seen. Japanese people understand this system somewhat by looking at it. But foreigners who are not accustomed to this system may be confused. Please learn from this and try the authentic and tasty yakitori.
Thank you for reading to the end. Please don’t forget to bookmark this page.
