Hokuto Kushiage

About

Hokuto is a Japanese-style izakaya hidden in the bustling streets of Kowloon City, specializing in kushiage (Japanese deep-fried skewers). The restaurant offers an elegant dining environment suitable for dates, gatherings with friends and family, or business meals. The establishment provides both à la carte selections and omakase-style chef's selections for those seeking a curated experience. Their signature 'North' evening chef's omakase set is priced at HK$980, featuring kushiage as the main attraction alongside other delightful dishes. Beyond kushiage, diners have noted that other dishes offer pleasant surprises, with particular mention of sea urchin tofu as a standout item. Hokuto sources ingredients directly from Japan, ensuring authenticity and quality in their offerings. The restaurant features seasonal specialties, such as autumn sanma (Pacific saury) served two ways - half as sashimi and half as kushiage, skillfully deboned by Chef Watanabe. With its tasteful Japanese atmosphere in Kowloon City, Hokuto provides a refined dining experience for those seeking authentic Japanese kushiage.
