When you can't forget 'that taste you had at our restaurant' but also 'want to relax at home today,' our takeout and delivery services are perfect for you. We aim to bring the 'spirit of hospitality' and 'dedication to flavor,' cultivated at our private room yakitori restaurant, zashiki izakaya, and terrace izakaya in Ishiyama, right to your dining table at home.

Here, we'll introduce several practical tips for maximizing your enjoyment of our flavors at home.

Secrets to Enjoying Omi Chicken Skewers at Home and How to Reheat Them

• The Luxurious Flavor of Carefully Selected Cuts
  Our skewers are meticulously prepared by skilled artisans, who carefully skewer various cuts of Omi Chicken one by one and grill them slowly over Binchotan charcoal. You can savor the unique texture and umami of each part, such as thigh, negima (chicken and scallion), neck, and tsukune (chicken meatballs), to your heart's content at home. The aroma and juiciness remain unchanged even with takeout or delivery.
• The Best Way to Reheat at Home
  It would be a shame for delicious skewers to get cold, wouldn't it? Here's how to reheat them to enjoy them at their best at home.
  • Using a Toaster Oven
    Lightly wrap in aluminum foil and heat for about 3–5 minutes. If it tends to burn, remove the foil midway and toast until lightly browned for a more aromatic finish.
  • Using a Frying Pan
    Heat a small amount of oil and gently warm over low heat. Cover and steam-fry to maintain a plump texture.
  • Using a Microwave
    Without covering with plastic wrap, heat for a short time (about 30 seconds to 1 minute), checking frequently. Be careful not to overheat, as it can make the meat tough.
• Create Your Own Original Skewer Set with Your Favorite Combinations
  You can freely combine your favorite skewers according to the number of people and your preferences. We also recommend arranging several types of skewers together to create a visually appealing and colorful dish.
