What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

Run by a disciple of the founder of Torimatsu — the birthplace of Kushiro-style Zangi. Only 5 menu items: pure, uncompromising focus on the craft. The signature style: dipping savory fried chicken in sweet-spicy sauce with plenty of black pepper. Just 5 counter seats, always filled with regulars.

'Third visit and counting.' 'Piping hot, perfectly crispy.' 'The Kushiro-style sauce with black pepper is the best.' 'A taste that keeps you coming back.' 'So few items on the menu, yet I return every time.'
