Bibai-style yakitori (grilled chicken) is founded upon an enduring and sustainable principle: using the entire chicken. Everything from skin and heart to liver and thigh is grilled with onions to make for simply delicious skewers. The tradition dates back to Bibai’s roots as a mining town when frugality trumped all other needs, but thankfully it continues in full force today. At Bibai-style yakitori restaurants, it is customary to order the skewers in groups of ten; so, be sure to dig in!
