We are the only bar in Hong Kong that specializes in yakitori. "In Hong Kong, most yakitori places are just a single counter, or else tiny servings of yakitori at a high-end restaurant, such as in a kaiseki course. Birdie, a yakitori bar in the Central district, has been winning over fans since it opened in 2019. Japanese yakitori, which features high-quality Japanese ingredients and careful grilling using binchotan charcoal to bring out even more delicious flavor, has a long tradition that differs from Cantonese cuisine-it’s both familiar and surprising to Hong Kong residents at the same time.
Hong Kong, the home of Cantonese cuisine, has many traditional chicken dishes famous in Japan such as shoyu chicken and drunken chicken, and locals are known for their discerning palate for chicken. The past year or two has seen a huge boom for yakitori in Hong Kong. Over the past decade or so, Hong Kong has seen booming popularity for all kinds of Japanese food, from top-quality sushi and kaiseki dining to casual tonkatsu, curry, and takeout onigiri rice balls, which have now become a staple of the Hong Kong diet. Among the many yakitori specialty restaurants, we take a look at Birdie, which truly conveys the appeal of yakitori as a part of Japanese culinary culture, not to mention meticulous attention paid to the ingredients.
Recently, yakitori grilled chicken has made major inroads among Hong Kong locals. The array of Japanese restaurants in Hong Kong utilizing high-quality Japanese ingredients and offering thoughtful fare to local diners directly reflects the city’s ongoing boom in Japanese dining.
