Charcoal Yakitori Kushi Hachichin, Ueno, Tokyo, Japan

My trip to Japan was quickly drawing to a close and I was looking for one last yakitori feast.

Close to my hotel was a yakitori restaurant with decent reviews so I decided to head in to have dinner.

I arrived shortly after 5pm and I was the only patron at that time.

I ended up ordering a bit of a feast as there were so many options

  • Negima – chicken thigh & spring onions
  • Chicken thigh
  • Kawa – chicken skin
  • Chicken wings
  • Tsumune – minced chicken
  • Pork belly
  • Spring onions

Followed by a vanilla ice cream.

To accompany my meal I also had a couple of shochus.

The food was very good and came out in waves so it didn’t get cold.

The meal wasn’t cheap but I think it was worth the price.
