Kushikatsu Tanaka's New Star: Infinite Garlic Hormone串
Kushikatsu Tanaka Holdings, based in Shinagawa, Tokyo, has recently reported a remarkable achievement for its latest dish, the Infinite Garlic Hormone串. Launched on April 24, 2025, this innovative skewer has already sold over
1 million pieces in just about two weeks, marking an unprecedented success in its sales history.
Traditionally, the top-selling item has been the
Kushikatsu Pork, which had consistently sold around
500,000 pieces monthly. However, the new Infinite Garlic Hormone串 has quickly overtaken it to become the number one skewer in popularity. With its affordable price of
50 yen (inclusive of tax at 55 yen), it has captured the hearts (and stomachs) of many.
The Infinite Delight of Garlic Hormone串
What makes the Infinite Garlic Hormone串 stand out? It is designed to be a perfect pairing with a range of alcoholic beverages, considerably enhancing the dining experience at Kushikatsu Tanaka. This dish not only is tasty but is also incredibly budget-friendly. The secret lies in the
special garlic soy sauce which adds a rich flavor that complements various drinks beautifully.
Affordable Happy Hour Deals
For those looking to enjoy a great evening without breaking the bank, Kushikatsu Tanaka offers a
Happy Hour that runs until 6 PM on weekdays. During this time, patrons can enjoy Jim Beam highballs and specialty lemon sours for just
90 yen (tax included) per drink. Ordering
10 pieces of the Infinite Garlic Hormone串 along with two refreshing drinks translates to a mere
1,045 yen — making it a quintessential experience for anyone seeking to relish the joys of
“senbero”, a popular Japanese drinking culture that emphasizes affordable drinking and snacking.
Additional Drink Specials to Enhance Your Experience
Kushikatsu Tanaka has also launched various drink promotions. The
“Drinking Pass” allows patrons to enjoy selected beverages at only
250 yen (tax included). Adding to the fun, they offer a
“Chinchiro-Rin Drink” where patrons roll two dice, and the sum reveals the drink specials for that round. Pairing these unique drink experiences with the Infinite Garlic Hormone串 promises an unforgettable night.
