Gunkei Honten Kakushigura
A renowned chicken restaurant with an enthusiastic following in Miyazaki, the home of this local cuisine.
A popular restaurant serving local Miyazaki chicken cuisine. Its extensive menu features premium chicken raised at the restaurant's own poultry farm.
Raised on fertile land in fresh air, Miyazaki Jitokko chicken is known for its firm texture and rich flavor that fills your mouth with every bite. Charcoal-grilled chicken, cooked boldly over a wire mesh, is the restaurant's signature dish and is ordered by nearly every guest. It tastes exceptional with the homemade yuzu kosho citrus chili paste. The restaurant's confidence in the freshness of its chicken is evident in dishes such as chicken sashimi and tataki. Local specialties such as chicken nanban and hiyajiru chilled soup are also popular. There is also a wide selection of local Miyazaki sake and shochu. If you are unsure what to order, try a course that includes the main menu items. Food-only courses are also available for those who do not drink alcohol.
With its white-walled exterior and mainly tatami-mat seating, the restaurant evokes a samurai residence or traditional storehouse and offers a calm Japanese atmosphere. Private rooms and loft seating provide an added sense of privacy.
