Welcome to Yoruyaki
During my time dining in Japan and at Japanese restaurants in the United States I've always come back to yakitori (焼き鳥). The frenetic pace of the person running the grill, the smell of burnt chicken fat, an ice cold rice lager and the chatter of diners relaxing after a hard days work. Every time I taste a skewer it transports me to a small dimly lit izakaya that specializes in grilled chicken skewers.
This pop up is my contribution to spreading this way of eating to Portland.
