Signature Dishes
Chicken Wings
These overnight-dried chicken wings have lightly crisp skin, rich juices, and a pronounced charcoal aroma; the skin may also be somewhat firm.
Chicken Feet Lantern
This deboned chicken-foot lantern is rich in gelatin, with a yolk that gently bursts into a sweet-and-savory mix; worth trying.
Chicken Skewer
The chicken skewer, finished with sake, has dry-crisp skin and well-judged doneness, blending French and izakaya flavors.
White Eel
At times, the white eel is mellow and tender; it may also be dry and fibrous, with half the surface charred.
