[Osaka, Namba] A famous yakitori restaurant in Dotonbori that locals secretly visit: "Kushiyaki Saru"

I went to Kushiyakizaru, a creative skewer restaurant in Dotonbori, Osaka.

They use domestic binchotan charcoal, Oyama chicken, and seafood from the central market, and they are particular about the way they grill and the ingredients they use. It's a famous restaurant that is known only to those in the know, with a homey atmosphere that is also a charm.
