Torimatsu

(Source : 食べログ)
Torimatsu is a specialty restaurant in the downtown district of Kushiro City that specializes in the soul food of Hokkaido, zangi. Zangi is a kind of fried chicken that is first seasoned with flavors like soy sauce, garlic, and ginger and originated in the year 1960. Torimatsu is a popular store where it is said that zangi was first born and so not only locals but also many foreign visitors come by after finding descriptions of the popular restaurant in various guide books. The unique flavor of the zangi hasn’t changed since its beginning with juicy chicken meat, light and crunchy batter, and slightly spicy sauce.

Legendary sauce handed down through the generations

Zangi is already seasoned with sauce before deep frying, but the original zangi style also dips the finished product in another special sauce! Torimatsu’s masterful sauce was created by the founder who traveled all over Japan researching various tastes looking for the most delicious combinations, and today that perfected recipe is handed down from generation to generation.

Crispy fried juicy chicken

The signature dish of the store is of course the zangi (580 yen) which is thoroughly marinated in the special sauce and crispy fried with lard. The set for one person includes six pieces from various parts of the chicken allowing you to enjoy different pieces like breast and thigh. Not knowing what you’re going to get is part of the fun!

Recommendation for the ladies and kids!

The classic zangi includes bones, but boneless zangi (hone nashi) (690 yen) are also available at Torimatsu. We recommend the boneless chicken for the kids who can bite into the meat freely without worry! The boneless pieces are also easy to handle with chopsticks so they’re a popular dish among the ladies.
