Tokyo Yotsuya Late-night Diner｜Exploring the famous Yakitori restaurant &quot;IMAIYA&quot;: Lanterns bursting between teeth, encountering the most authentic Japanese nightlife in the alley bar street

📍 Restaurant name: YOTSUYA IMAIYA (Yotsuya Imaiya Main Store)

🚇 Address: 1-7-18 Yotsuya, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo (3 minutes walk from JR Yotsuya Station)

⏰ Business hours:
Lunch 11:30-14:00 | Dinner 17:00-23:00 (open early to 16:00 on weekends)

💡 Must-see Tips: *It is recommended to make an appointment in advance for the dinner! Seats in niche famous restaurants are in short supply, and you can watch the chef&#39;s &quot;charcoal art&quot; at the bar. 

🍢 In-depth course on how to eat yakitori: from common to rare, unlock the ultimate secret of a chicken
1. Salt-grilled vs. sauce-grilled, a duet on the tip of the tongue
- Must-order for salt-grilled party: chicken leg tip (five-point-rare and tender as tofu), chicken skin (thin and crispy), chicken tail (seven-mile fragrant, fat bursting without fishy smell). 
- First choice for sauce-grilled party: lantern (ovary + immature egg yolk, bursting in the mouth after grilling with sauce), white liver (natural chicken fatty liver, melting like butter), diaphragm (sauce suppresses fishy smell and enhances freshness). 

👉 Secret way to eat: brush the chicken meatballs with secret sauce and dip them in raw egg liquid! The smooth egg liquid wraps around the crispy bone particles, and the taste is explosive.

2. Soul Charcoal Fire Code
The store insists on using Kishu Binchotan charcoal, which locks the meat juice at high temperature and the smoky aroma penetrates into the texture. Observe the chef&#39;s technique: use a fan to control the fire, and use bamboo sticks of different sizes to pierce the meat to ensure that each piece is evenly heated - the so-called &quot;three years of skewering, a lifetime of grilling&quot;! 

🎑 Full atmosphere: Showa-style izakaya &times; craftsman spirit live ** 
- Dark aesthetic space: sit around the charcoal grill at the log bar, and watch the chef dismantle the whole chicken with his knife in the smoke; warm yellow lanterns reflect the sake bottles on the wall, and retro posters silently tell the story of the old store opened in 1999. 
- Friendly for single people: It&#39;s not embarrassing to sit alone at the bar, and there are often uncles in suits drinking alone after work next door, or international students taking notes while eating skewers. 
- Main Easter egg link: After 9 p.m., the chef on the front board brings out the &quot;chicken pot&quot;! The golden butter of the Hinai chicken can heal your late-night stomach with a bowl (there is also lunch, but it is more delicious at night). 

🌃 Sleepless night in the alley of YOTSUYA: Enter the &quot;second living room&quot; of Tokyo people
Push the door of IMAIYA, and the night of Yotsuya is just boiling&mdash;&mdash;
- 50+ bars hidden in the 200-meter alley: retro whiskey bar, jazz bar, Showa-style club, neon lights flashing, office workers take off their ties here, raise their glasses and talk about football games and stocks.
- Golden route for in-depth tour:
IMAIYA full stomach &rarr; slightly tipsy bar street &rarr; Yotsuya Station Yatai oden end**. Stroll in the early morning, watch drunks bow goodbye, housewives take their husbands home... This is the Japanese human drama without the tourist filter.

✨The lantern blooms a golden galaxy between the lips and teeth, and the sparks of Binchotan charcoal light up the night of Yotsuya. There is no hustle and bustle of tourists here, only the concentration in front of the grill, the whispers after clinking glasses, and the breath of Tokyo&#39;s joys and sorrows in an alley.
