You're walking along Mermaid Quay on a Friday night and the smell of grilled chicken hits you before you spot the place. Inside, it's all dark wood and that unmistakable yakitori charm—the kind of spot where you can watch the cooks working the grill through the counter. The menu's straightforward and honest: skewers done right, with chicken hearts, thighs, and wings charred just enough to be dangerous. It's the sort of place that gets rammed because locals know what's good, and tourists stumble in wondering why there's a queue.
