Yakitori

If you walk around the city at night in Fukuoka or Hakata, you will definitely encounter yakitori restaurants here and there. It is said that the number of yakitori restaurants per 100,000 population is the highest in Japan. There is really a wide variety of skin, sand shredding, kimo, chicken four, meatballs, cartilage, green onions, bonchiri, chicken wings, etc. The characteristic of Fukuoka's yakitori menu is that chicken eats everything from meat, internal organs, and even bones (cartilage). When you enter the store and order, “cabbage” with “ponzu sauce” comes out on a platter, and the grilled yakitori skewers are placed on it in order. There are many places in Fukuoka where cabbage is served for free, and it is a yakitori culture unique to Fukuoka that surprises the whole country!
