Bincho

I check the @binchoyakitori website far more often than I’d like to admit, so when I couldn’t find a booking before 9pm in May, it was a bit of a disappointment. But when a last minute cancellation popped up for this week, there was no hesitation, we booked it immediately. Honestly, it felt like winning the lottery. If you’ve been to Bincho, you’ll know that’s not an exaggeration

If you haven’t been yet, I can’t recommend it highly enough. The menu is built around small plate teriyaki dishes, cooked over traditional Japanese coals and executed to perfection. Impressively, the menu hasn’t really changed in all the years I’ve been going and it doesn’t need to. It’s that good

Standout dishes? The Chicken Skins, Pork Belly, Korean-Style Cauliflower, and the Charred Sweet Potato with Miso bButter are all exceptional, have I missed any?!

A solid 10/10—no notes. Book a table, and you’ll see exactly what I mean. I’m already back on the website planning my next visit!
