Yokozuna Kushikatsu
×Kushikatsu
Why you must eat itBig Shinsekai-style skewers, fried crisp in fine crumbs. The range is wide — beef, prawn, quail egg, seasonal vegetables — each ordered one at a time. The sauce is, of course, no double-dipping, and the cabbage is free. On the main street that looks up at Tsutenkaku, the flashy front with its giant red lanterns is the mark. Eat the fresh ones in a row and wash them down with beer. Open late, it suits a stop on a crawl.
Yokozuna Kushikatsu, on Shinsekai's Tsutenkaku-hondori, is known for its giant red lanterns and flashy signage. Built around beef skewers, with prawn and vegetables ordered singly, the no-double-dipping rule kept. Counter and table seating, busy with tourists. Open late on many days, it suits drinking over kushikatsu. It has several shops in Shinsekai.
