Why we point you here
Nara's Bib Gourmand yakitori, proof that simplicity and smoke deserve their own recognition.
Yakitori in Nara earns its Bib Gourmand for good reason: the kind of cooking that needs nothing but charcoal, skewers, and timing. Yamaguchi delivers exactly that—smoke, salt, and the quiet discipline of a cuisine that's worth the detour when you're roaming beyond Kyoto.
