If Tokyo’s highly rated yakitori spot Torishiki, considered one of the most difficult restaurants to book in the city, has long been on your bucket list, the end of the queue is in sight, as the Torishiki Ichimon group has brought its yakitori concept to Hong Kong!
Now open at the Forty-Five dining destination in Landmark, Torikaze is the latest offering by Japanese master chef Yoshiteru Ikegawa, whose expertise in yakitori cuisine is second to none. At Torikaze, the main focus is the preservation of Tokyo-style binchotan grilling, showcased through a sensory dining experience featuring premium ingredients and disciplined techniques. Chef Ikegawa’s protégé, chef Ryo Matsui, brings decades of training and a deep understanding of yakitori flavours to Hong Kong diners.
Torikaze’s seasonally refreshed lunch set ($350-480) includes comfort dishes like oyakodon and chicken soup with somen, while the omakase dinner menu ($780) features signature skewers and hot dishes. Guests who’d like to take control of their courses can also turn to the à la carte options to curate their own selection of skewers, or add on dishes such as chicken soup, specialty rice bowls, and even grilled chicken ramen.
