| Sticks and skewers |
No one came forward to stop me from snapping away. This kind of explain this photo-laden post. Another reason being we really ate a lot.
It was a happy dinner with the gang. We like similar food. Guess that's how we stay as friends.
 |
| Chicken Skin |
My standard order since secondary school days.
 |
| Chicken with leeks and chicken liver |
Such lovely hue of bloody red. Liver was tender and so very delicious.
 |
| Chicken Tailbone |
Bones for the only guy at the table.
 |
| Bacon wrapped asparagus |
Bacon and asparagus. They are best friends and a definite signature at Nanbantei.
 |
| Quail Eggs and Chicken Balls |
The chicken balls, other signature were just as glorious.
 |
| Squid |
Squid was a bit over-cooked and tough.
 |
| Pork belly and leeks |
Really juicy and fragrant pork belly.
 |
| Ox tongue |
A was out of town for work but I remembered him through his fave ox's tongue.
 |
| Bacon wrapped cherry tomatoes |
Cherry tomatoes is yet another signature and must order. There are just too many good things at Nanbantei.
 |
| Salmon |
I love salmon. So happy someone ordered a fleshy slab of omega 3.
 |
| Sardine Rice |
Ate everything with my usual sardine rice. Most satisfying.
 |
| Sake |
And I rounded the excellent meal with 2 small sips of sake. It was a very happy night.
 |
| Wagyu beef and wagyu tongue |
For for comparison sake, we dropped by Enmaru the very next day. The wagyu beef was certainly top-notched and delicious beyond words. Nevertheless, ox tongue at Nanbantei was much more outstanding. I think it got more to do with how these babies were sliced than the way they were cooked.
 |
| Onions and asparagus |
I did not snap a pic of the onions at Nanbantei but they tasted very similar at both places. Ha ha, what do I expect? Asparagus was tender and extra yummy with a dash of chili powder.
 |
| Pork belly wrapped asparagus and chicken lver |
Pork belly was really gamey at Enmaru so Nanbantei's pork anything won hands down.
 |
| Caesar Salad |
We got to choose from a decent range of refreshing and yummy salad. Good for us to wash down all that grease.
 |
| Rice ball |
Really not very inspiring carbohydrate.
 |
| Chicken Soup |
The conclusion is pretty clear. If I want good yakitori I will stick to good old Nanbantei but I will always go back to Enmaru for their wonderful chicken soup ;p If you haven't try the soup, what are you waiting for? GO!

How much do you usually spend per person? Like if you really want to stuff your face.
