The chicken thigh Yuuan-yaki and tulip were particularly appreciated for the accompaniments between skewers. It would have been nice to have at least one vegetable dish.The meat dishes were rich in flavor, with each bite releasing a delightful taste. The unique strength and texture of the Shamo chicken were evident, providing a satisfying bite that was not just soft but had a nice snap.Among the chicken parts, I especially enjoyed the combined Sori and Furisode, Genkotsu, and Dakimi.The offal dishes were all exquisite! Heart, Chikankotsu, Seikan, Chouchin... these are must-tries. It was a pity that there was no white liver available. For offal lovers, the quality here is outstanding.The JPY 5,500 course allowed me to choose from four different options for the final dish. It would have been even better if they had oyakodon (chicken and egg rice bowl). After enjoying the pistachio ice cream for dessert, I felt about 90% full.It was a great meal. I'm glad I could visit this representative yakitori restaurant in Gifu. I hope to return again if the opportunity arises.*Rating at the time of visit: 3.95 Less
