KUISINBO

Yakitori Kuishinbo Main Store is an izakaya in Seoul serving Japanese-style chicken skewers and highballs, a four-minute walk from Hapjeong Station Exit 6. Skewers include chicken thigh, cartilage, and heart, along with ochazuke containing grilled onigiri, and cabbage with mayonnaise sauce comes as a basic side dish. On a Thursday evening between 6 and 7 p.m., two or three tables were open, and one visit involved a wait of about 30 minutes. Loud Japanese greetings make the space noisy.
