Japan, Lovers, Small plate, Barbecue, Sharing

Nestled in a dimly lit alley in Central Hong Kong, just entering this Japanese grill becomes an adventure in itself. Begin your journey with a short elevator ride alongside local businessmen or hostesses from the numerous bars nestled within the building’s nine floors. Upon arrival, seek out the “members only” door, complete with a peephole for the no-nonsense staff, and give it a knock. Inside, you’ll be greeted by an intricately decorated interior featuring old sake labels and bamboo box lanterns while they check your reservation. Now, you’re set to enjoy an array of delectable skewers. Whether you’re with friends or a special someone, the open grills and skilled chefs are sure to impress. If you don’t speak Chinese or Japanese, rely on your “order-by-pointing” skills or the friendly and attentive staff for assistance. Soon, you’ll find yourself with piles of skewers in front of you. Be sure to try the OX TONGUE, CHICKEN SKIN, and MUSHROOM SKEWERS, as well as the FOIE GRAS AND EGG RICE—signature dishes not to be missed. As you leave, you’ll walk back through the alley, hoping this hidden gem stays secret.
