This event promises to deliver a thrilling live show featuring craftsmanship rarely seen in daily life. Moreover, guests will have the opportunity to indulge in fresh bluefin tuna sashimi immediately after it has been sliced and prepared, celebrating the exquisite flavors of this delicacy.

A Tradition of Excellence

The Whole Tuna Disassembly Show is an annual highlight at Oden & Yakitori Takeshi, celebrated specifically in summer. It is highly anticipated by local residents and visitors alike, who come together to enjoy this festive occasion. The disassembly process is not only impressive but also educational, allowing guests to learn about different parts of the tuna and how they are best prepared and enjoyed.

Last year's event was a resounding success, and this year, we are excited to bring the experience to Chofu – a vibrant city that welcomes food enthusiasts from all around. We invite families and friends to join this unforgettable evening that combines entertainment with culinary excellence.

In addition to watching the disassembly, attendees will be able to purchase freshly cut bluefin tuna right from our venue – a rare chance to enjoy incredibly fresh fish at home!
