About Oden to Yakitori Takeshi
The restaurant builds its creative oden around two types of broth: flying fish dashi and chicken dashi. Classic ingredients such as daikon and egg are joined by seasonal ingredients, with each item prepared to suit the character of the broth and the food.
The yakitori is served in easy-to-eat two- or three-skewer portions. Each piece is grilled individually with attention to its cooking level and seasoning, allowing diners to enjoy the recommended flavor first and then customize it at the table.
