KANAZAWA: Kushi Sakaba Daisho
It was a cold, rainy evening when we were hunting for dinner in Kanazawa. However, every restaurant we went to didn’t accept walk-ins. We walked from the station through several streets, but every place required reservations. Eventually, we stumbled upon this standing yakitori bar, and they welcomed us in with the warmest hospitality.
Kushi Sakaba Daisho
Kushi Sakaba Daisho is a lively and affordable izakaya that is specializing in offers quite a variety of kushiyaki and delicious bar bites that pair perfectly with drinks.
We noticed salarymen come straight in their suit here after work; munched bites and with a glass or two. And then, they left. That’s the true after-work culture, I guess.
That night, I think we ordered almost everything on the menu. The draft beer was sweet and refreshing, and every dish was incredibly comforting, and price was affordable too. It ended up being the warmest meal we had throughout the whole trip — LOL.
