Kyushu Chicken Yakitori Perfectly Grilled Over Binchotan Charcoal
"Yakitori Ichiriki," a popular yakitori restaurant from Ube City in Yamaguchi, has opened a new branch in Yuda Onsen, Yamaguchi City. With a desire to "showcase authentic yakitori," the restaurant offers exquisite skewers made with a focus on "ingredients, binchotan charcoal, and expert grilling." In addition to healthy skewers of pork belly wrapped around vegetables, the menu also features a wide selection of à la carte dishes such as "Luxurious Kuroge Wagyu Sea Urchin Roll" and "Sesame Amberjack." English and Chinese menus are available, making it accessible to international visitors. Counter seats are arranged around the grill, allowing diners to watch the chefs’ craftsmanship up close. Semi-private and private tables are also available, making it a versatile choice for various dining occasions.
Three Key Elements: Ingredients, Binchotan Charcoal, and Grilling
The yakitori is made with Kyushu-grown "Nichinan Chicken", known for its firm texture and rich flavor. Sprinkled with pure rice wine and natural salt to bring out the flavor, the chicken is carefully grilled one by one by experienced chefs. Using binchotan charcoal, the chicken is crispy on the outside and soft and juicy on the inside, making for a savory yakitori.
The Secret to Delicious Skewers Is Binchotan Charcoal
Using binchotan charcoal, which emits a high level of far-infrared radiation, allows ingredients to be grilled slowly while preserving their natural flavour and moisture. The grilling method is carefully adjusted depending on the ingredient - for example, using high heat for a shorter time when appropriate. Thoughtful attention is also given to the timing of service to ensure each dish is enjoyed at its best, freshly grilled.
