An original style of yaktori with pork, onion and mustard

Muroran Yakitori

Yakitori usually refers to grilled skewered chicken, but in Muroran City, its style of ‘yakitori’ is uniquely made with pork and onion, garnished with mustard. As pig farming was introduced to the region around 1937, people started to serve pork offal meat at food stands, where they also sold grilled skewered chicken. For convenience, they called both of them ‘yakitori’, and this name remains unchanged to date. Try this tasty ‘yakitori’ of pork and onion when in Muroran City.
