About
Located in Higashi‑Azabu, Kushiage Nakaya Higashi‑Azabu offers creative kushiage that incorporates techniques from Japanese, Chinese, and French cuisine. Driven by a spirit of innovation, the chef seeks to explore new possibilities in kushiage—free from the boundaries of genre or ingredient.
Ingredients are carefully selected by the owner, who personally visits producers across Japan, including contracted vegetable farmers in Chiba and clam fishermen in Choshi. Only ingredients whose quality and background have been verified on site are used, allowing each skewer to express the pure character of its ingredients. The breadcrumbs used for the coating are a special joint development with Pelican, the long‑established bakery in Azabudai Hills. Their light texture and fragrant aroma elevate the flavor of the kushiage even further.
Sake, wine, and champagne are also personally curated by the chef, offering guests the pleasure of thoughtful pairings.
The restaurant features a refined, tranquil interior centered around counter seating, where guests can watch the cooking unfold right before their eyes. It offers a lively, immersive dining experience, while still being perfectly suited for special occasions such as dates or business dinners. Experience a world of kushiage where dedication to ingredients and creative craftsmanship truly shine.
