Chicken is the only meat eaten by people across
races and religions around the world. Although there are various kinds of chicken
dishes in Japan, Yakitori barbecue chicken is a unique Japanese dish. Grilled
over a charcoal fire and served while it's hot, Yakitori is a favorite
menu item in Japan in izakaya restaurants and outdoor beer gardens open
in summer. Yakitori barbecue chicken can be served as any course from appetizer
to main dish. It is sold in Japanese supermarkets and takeout shops and often
served at home, too. Yakitori barbecue chicken is a folk dish popular among
Japanese of all ages from children to adults.
As Yakitori is a casual food, there are no rules or manners about how to
eat it. It is skewered so as to be easy to eat. Therefore, just bite. People often
eat while walking. The only thing you should know is that Yakitori tastes
best when hot. It loses its flavor when cool, so please help yourself soon after
it has been grilled. |
