When visiting Fukuoka, you absolutely can’t miss Hakata’s traditional hot pot dish, mizutaki! This time, I visited Tori Den Hakata Main Store, a well-known mizutaki restaurant famous for its flavorful chicken and rich chicken broth. The overall dining experience was truly excellent!
The broth was rich, and the chicken was tender but still had a nice texture! The broth concentrated all the essence of the chicken, giving it a savory, full-bodied flavor that became even more enjoyable with every sip. The chicken also had a great texture. It wasn’t stewed until overly soft, so you could still taste the chicken’s natural flavor and satisfying firmness. It was really delicious!
Besides the delicious food, the service was also very attentive, making the whole dining experience even more enjoyable. The only minor downside was that the chicken broth rice porridge served at the end was a little salty for me, but that didn’t affect my positive opinion of the restaurant at all!
I sincerely recommend this place to anyone visiting Fukuoka! If you like chicken soup dishes, be sure to add it to your food itinerary. Mizutaki isn’t just about eating chicken—it’s also about savoring the delicious broth concentrated with the essence of chicken. I definitely recommend making a reservation early! It’s safer to reserve ahead at a popular restaurant so you don’t arrive only to find that you can’t get a table.
