Fresh fried chicken lunch with original garlic soy sauce

About this spot

One of the signature restaurants representing Nakatsu, the mecca of fried chicken, and known as the originator of garlic soy sauce fried chicken. Fried to order, the coating is thin and crispy while the inside is juicy. The secret-recipe garlic soy sauce-marinated boneless and bone-in fried chicken, when bitten into fresh and piping hot, fills your mouth with meat juices and the aroma of garlic soy sauce. This taste, which has numerous accolades at national fried chicken festivals, is something you'll want to experience at the main shop precisely because you've come all the way to Nakatsu. Takeout is the standard, so enjoying piping-hot chicken in the open air is a pleasure unique to a castle-town walk.

Tips

Since chicken is fried to order, there may be wait times during lunch rush. Visit with time to spare. Since takeout is the main focus, having wet wipes handy is reassuring if your hands get messy. Dispose of trash from eating while walking responsibly.
