Enjoying Yakitori in San Diego – Let’s Have Some Chicken Skewers! 🍢

I had yakitori twice in three days while in San Diego – it was so satisfying! 😋 My favorite skewers were chicken heart, gizzard, blood vessels, wings, skin, and liver. Honestly, their chicken skewers are absolutely delicious! 👍 Besides chicken, the pork, oysters, tea-soaked rice, and beef were also great. 🐽🦪🍚🐮 The chef grills right in front of you, giving it a bit of an omakase vibe. 👨🍳🔥 The head chef is really cute – he clinked glasses with us for a beer and even flashed a peace sign ✌🏻 while grilling, making the atmosphere super relaxed. This place focuses on the natural flavor of the ingredients, and you can tell the offal is very fresh, with minimal seasoning. 🧂 The chef just sprinkles a little salt before grilling, adding a bit of sauce when they’re almost done. The chicken heart bursts with juice in one bite; the gizzard is chewy; the liver is fragrant and sizzling with oil; the wings are tasty; and the skin is perfectly grilled – not too crispy or too soft. 🍗💦 Anyway, just dig in and enjoy! 😄 When leaving, I complimented the chef and food using the Japanese I’ve learned. (I actually ordered a lot but didn’t take photos because the skewers were served one by one as they were ready, and I finished them right away😅. It’s hard to find yakitori this delicious after leaving San Diego! My photos were too rushed to capture how good it looked – I was too busy eating!) 📍: Yakitori Taisho #SanDiegoFood #Yakitori #JapaneseSkewers #ChickenSkewers #FoodDiary #FoodieLife #JapaneseCuisine
