No surprises that this is a place for chicken lovers. Everything from sashimi to kare age is on the menu here. The dishes are light and artistically presented and slightly at odds with decor - basic wooden tables and chairs in a barely-converted former home (although tatami private rooms are also available), and the clientele - jacket-off, beer-chasing, loud salarymen. It's popular and tasty but the strange clash of cuisine and ambience made it a rather odd experience that's unlikely to be repeated any time soon.
