Waraku
Izakaya specializing in grilled skewers including chicken heart and gizzard, prepared using quality charcoal.
Introduction
Waraku is a Japanese skewer restaurant. The characteristic feature is that the skewers are grilled over a gentle fire for 4 hours using binchotan charcoal, known as the ‘jewel of charcoal.’ You can choose to eat different parts of the chicken, such as the meatballs and gizzards. EXO Chen once created a udon craze among fans by posting a photo of Waraku's sukiyaki nabe udon on social media. The grilled skewers can be enjoyed with alcohol, which is said to have been brought in personally by the owner of this restaurant while traveling all over Japan.
