Celebrating Resilience and Innovation
Horumon Yukachan was founded in December 2020, amidst a challenging backdrop for the restaurant industry due to the pandemic. The restaurant’s ethos emphasizes quality in every aspect — from freshness and preparation to cutting and seasoning. By diverging from traditional yakitori (skewered chicken) to a more barbecue-style offering of pork offal, they have attracted a dedicated clientele over the past five years.
Commitment to Culinary Excellence
Managing director Kenichi Fujishima emphasizes that the event not only celebrates the past but also embodies a commitment to continual innovation and breaking free of conventional norms. The goal for Horumon Yukachan is to make delicious pork offal more accessible to everyone while providing a fun dining environment that straddles both culinary and entertainment experiences.
