01 / Restaurant
Every skewer, at the right distance from the fire.
Yakitori Senkichi in Minamikyuhojimachi, Osaka: yakitori grilled over binchotan charcoal and horse sashimi sent directly from Kumamoto. About 9 minutes on foot from Honmachi Station Exit 12, for dinner in the Shinsaibashi area.
Craft
The charcoal draws the outline.
Chicken skewered that day is grilled over binchotan charcoal. On some nights very fresh cuts are served rare, seared only on the outside; if you would like yours cooked through, please say so first. Wagyu skewers, horse skirt, squid tentacles: this is not a chicken-only restaurant.
The horse meat comes from Kumamoto, as premium lean and marbled cuts. There are 28 seats, with a private room and private hire available. It sits in Senba as a place where the scent of charcoal lingers after work.
