This year's winter offering includes a total of 12 new dishes that promise to warm both the body and soul during the chilly season. Among the highlights is the ever-popular Setouchi large oysters kushi-katsu, alongside delectable new items featuring their first-ever "meat miso" series.
The winter specials include a variety of skewers and a selection of side dishes, ensuring there is something for everyone. The Setouchi large oysters, known for their juicy and rich flavor profile, are expertly complemented by a rich tartar sauce that greatly enhances their taste. Another standout item is the Scallop Cream Croquette, served piping hot with a creamy texture that is sure to be a hit during colder days. Additionally, patrons can indulge in the Sweet Potato Yokan, a seasonal dessert skewered to perfection.
For those yearning for savory options, the newly introduced meat miso series is the highlight of the one-plate menu. It features three distinct offerings: Spicy Miso Bean Sprouts, Miso Cheese Tomato, and Miso Cream Cheese Green Pepper, each crafted to provide a unique flavor experience that is both satisfying and comforting.
To satisfy dessert lovers, Kushikatsu Tanaka is also rolling out a range of sweet treats including the Cheese Fry with Maple Syrup—which intriguingly includes honey—and the classic Wagashi dessert, Warabi Mochi, featuring a delightful sweet syrup. An innovative option allows guests to create their own soft-serve ice cream, with choices of rich caramel and a Pistachio Banana Shake that’s sure to please.
For those looking to enjoy their winter favorites at home, takeout and delivery options are available with special seasonal kushi-katsu buckets. The featured bucket includes an assortment, including beef, pork, onions, shrimp, lotus root, as well as the famous scallop croquette and Setouchi oysters, available in both 16-piece and 24-piece bundles. This presents the perfect opportunity for gatherings, winter celebrations, or cozy nights in.
Despite the extensive offerings, some items may be limited due to supplier availability, and not every location will carry the full menu. Therefore, it is wise for aficionados of Kushikatsu to check with their local branches to ensure they can savor these limited-time selections.
