Noroshi, Higashi 狼煙、東

Some dining venues are fun, even when the food isn’t up to much. Noroshi, a cheap and cheerful yakitori joint halfway between Shibuya and Ebisu just off Meiji Dori (near the bicycle shop), is just such a place.
Simple interior, vinyl (for the unaware – visit a museum or antique shop) spinning either reggae or Latino tunes, cheap beer and highballs, friendly, somewhat brusque, service and minuscule yakitori standards from ¥120.
Easy to find better yakitori elsewhere, but the atmosphere works, especially if you take a beer-crate table outside.
Ostumami.
Ostumami 2.
Chicken liver – little dry, and a little little.
Chicken – on a stick.
Cheese stuffed mushrooms.
Potato salad – infused with curry powder. Tasty, but way too small.
Chicken and leak.
Baby corn and more liver.
Tsukune with tare sauce.
Sasami topped with plum sauce and nori.
French fries – better than expected.
Noroshi claims to be “cheap, delicious and good to your body.” They get the first part right.
