    I’ve heard of yakitori, but could you tell me what it means? Those eggs look really good, as well as the sticks with beef on them. I could imagine hanging out there on a Friday right after work. I bet I’d look forward to it.

      Traditionally, I think it’s chicken skewered onto bamboo and then cooked on a grill in front of you. These days, almost anything can go on the skewer: beef, beans, eggs and plenty of things I couldn’t really identify…

      Oh, I’m so hungry again now!
