Yakitori, Nenohi, Yurakucho, Tokyo

September 18, 2008
So I actually bought this after I bought what's coming up in tomorrow's post, but I ate the Yakitori before, so there.

Yakitori, or grilled meat on a stick, the highlight of late night (or siu-mai) of Japanese food. In a nice drinking place surrounded by many other Yakitori shops, I downed seven sticks of meat easily. Mainly chicken and pork, with the meatballs on the bottom, and also some chicken neck (surprise, tasted like chicken). However, this was a bit of a downer, since it marked the only time I really wished I had someone there with me. Sitting at the bar amongst lots of Japanese natives and tourists drinking and eating loudly and happily will do that to ya.
