The tender fleshy chicken is sagged in barbeque sauce and is grilled at the fumes of hot charcoal. Gulping it down with a glass of cold beer is sure to satisfy your taste buds. The skewers are dipped in `shio' or salt and a sweet sauce named `tare'. Taste of yakitori served by these drop-in barbeque stands may vary, depending on the quality of tare and the charcoal.
