Pop-up yatai restaurant

Kirin Ichiban will be opening their first “pop-up” Yatai for one week only during August. The pop-up will be located on Brick Lane and will serve up a selection of traditional Kushiage dishes which are relatively unknown in the UK; delicious Japanese deep-fried skewer delicacies which will be available with a bottle beer for around just £5. A bargain if you ask us.

Yasuhiro Mineno (ex head chef of Nobu) and Shinya Ikeda, joint owners and Head Chef of Yashin sushi & bar have created a market-style menu offering Londoners some authentic flavours from their Japanese street menu.

Food and drink enthusiasts can choose from over ten mouth-watering combinations including: pork with Japanese Worcester sauce, marinated lamb with saikyo miso, asparagus with sea salt and lemon, pickled tomato and slightly hot green pepper with lemon to name a few. And we are told new combinations will be added to the menu daily.

The pop-up  Yatai will also be showing finalists work from the Kirin First Cut film competition bringing together the old traditions of Japan with new creativity and technology.

To make a reservation at the Kirin Yatai pop-up restaurant go to www.kirinfirstcut.co.uk. 

Bookings will be confirmed from July 2011.

Timings: Wednesday  – Saturday 12pm – 11pm, Monday  12pm – 9.40pm
