Yardbird in Hong Kong serves chicken skewers and Japanese dishes in a setting closer to a club-style pub than an izakaya. It offers tsukune, corn tempura, seaweed salad, clam soba and cocktails. On entry, staff tell guests the time they must leave for the next reservation, and plates are cleared as they are finished. The music is as loud as a club, so it is not a place for a quiet meal.
