I was pretty excited to discover that there’s a coffeeshop stall named Kushibuta selling yakitori, but after sampling their food, that excitement turned into disappointment.⠀

The grilled pork bowl turned out to be more deep fried than grilled, and they were very simply seasoned with nothing but salt. The rice is absolutely plain, and neither meat, nor mushroom, nor rice, were drizzled with the customary teriyaki sauce that everyone expects from yakitori. Worst of all, the bacon wrapped enoki mushrooms had an awful, alkaline & acrid taste to it.

I love it when enterprising hawkers put their own spins on different cuisines from all over the world, but this ain’t it chief.⠀
