Some of the best yakitori meals I’ve had are in small Taipei restaurants like this.
The yakitori bar
The yakitori chef
The yakitori appetizers. I eat these nonstop throughout the meal.
My 5 favorite sticks:
1. Chicken Ass – tender and fattylicious. I don’t mind clogging my arteries with
these precious baby butts.
2. Chicken Skin – crunchy, crispy and very, very tasty
3. Pork Liver – rich, sweet and pasty in a very yummy way
4. Chicken Gizzard – chewy and bitey. Delicious exercise for my jaw.
5. Mushrooms – because I still have to be a little healthy, right?
Other sticks:
Shishamo
Chicken Fillet
Bacon Shrimp Roll
Chicken Asparagus Roll
Beef Fillet with Scallions
I pair all the sticks with these Grilled Rice Dumplings which I grab with my bare hands
and stuff in my big mouth
Look at all the good things inside – sesame seeds, nori flakes and very tiny fishies...
So much texture, so much flavor.
Sago in Coconut Milk
Green Bean Soup
I smell as delicious as the yakitori after the meal.
