Speaking of Nagoya, Nagoya cochin chicken occur me at first because I love chicken. So, I reserved Senkame (千亀) that is a yakitori restaurant located in Sakae area to eat Nagoya Cochin as yakitori. They have 8 counter seats and tatami room. If we are seated at counter seats, we can see they grill chicken.
Grilled foods menu. And another, they have Today’s special menu on the blackboard. Everything can be ordered from one portion. Chicken is “鶏”. Almost all chicken is not Nagoya cochin. Cochin have word “コーチン”. And another, they use Mikawa Akadori chicken and so on.
And drinks. They have Japanese menu only now.
Fee of otoshi (cabbage) is required. It cost 330 yen. Otoshi is table charge. Many restaurant serve small food instead. This cabbage is seasoned with salt. It had refreshing tastes. So, it’s good for the intervals of yakitori. It go with beer, too.
Of course, they have Japanese sake. And all Japanese sake is glassed sake ! It’s called “One cup (ワンカップ)” in Japanese ! I chose Kara Kara (からから) from several Japanese sake. It’s produced in Aichi. Room temperature. One cup with an old table is photogenic.
I think this is MUST. Cochin’s leg meat. They grill it with charcoal simply. And it is served with salt, yuzu pepper, and sudachi citrus. As you see, its skin was so crisp. And the meat was juicy. Delicious. It’s MUST ! 🙂
And this is Cochin, too. Cochin’s liver. Its in side is rare. It’s like liver putty. It melted in my mouth.
And they have another liver. I ordered it, too. White liver. White liver is fatty liver. Foie gras of chicken. I didn’t order seasonings about my yakitori. Cochin’s liver was salt, and this was tare (soy sauce based sauce). This sauce wasn’t strong sauce. So, I could find the tastes of liver clearly. Cochin’s liver was like putty, and this had springy texture.
And tsukune. Tsukune is chicken meat ball. It have cochin. Also it have cartilage, so it had crunchy texture. Delicious.
And last. Chochin. Chochin is ovary with tube of chicken. I love it. I always order it at yakitori restaurant if they have in stock. Of course, I ordered it this time, too. The ovary popped in my mouth. The tube had springy texture. It went with the soy sauce based sauce.
Ah, seseri was good, too. Seseri is neck meat. It had springy texture. Everything was great. I agree that they are said to be the most popular yakitori restaurant in Nagoya.
