Overview

Yakitori capital where stalls grill organ cuts named in old German medical terms over charcoal.

Kurume is one of Japan's yakitori capitals, with a distinctive style that skewers obscure cuts like darm (small intestine), herz (heart), and senpoko (artery), named using German medical terms from early Meiji-era influence. Tiny smoke-filled stalls cluster around the station area, each with its own proprietary tare sauce. The per-capita yakitori consumption here rivals Fukuoka City.
