Experience the true art of binchotan charcoal-grilled yakitori at Tori Yoichi

Prepare yourself for an exquisite selection of yakitori delights at Tori Yoichi. Delve into the world of “tori” or chicken skewers, savouring delectable morsels such as chicken hearts, succulent chicken skin, flavourful chicken combs, tender chicken wings, and other tantalising parts totalling around 20.  From the exotic chicken “lantern” and delicate chicken oysters to the unique flavours of chicken throat, tail, palm, and knee skin – Tori Yoichi captures the essence of each ingredient with every meticulously grilled bite. The use of traditional high-quality Japanese binchotan charcoal infuses the chicken with an irresistible smokiness while sealing in its succulence - a testament to Chef Moriwake’s unwavering commitment to culinary excellence.

Made through a carbonisation process at temperatures exceeding 1200 degrees Celsius for over a week, binchotan charcoal burns at temperatures of 300-400 degrees Celsius, locking in the juiciness of the chicken while creating a crispy exterior that rivals traditional charcoal grills. Interestingly, this charcoal also eliminates any unpleasant odours from the chicken and imparts a subtle charcoal fragrance to the grilled meat.

While chicken takes centre stage, Tori Yoichi’s menu offers a delightful array of options to cater to every palate. Sink your teeth into beautifully grilled pork, vegetables, beef, and seafood skewers that are bursting with umami.
