About this spot
Tucked into the narrow lanes of Omoide Yokocho, Sasamoto Shinjuku Ten specializes in expertly grilled pork offal that defies typical fears of organ meats. The Tataki skewer delivers a rich, melt-in-your-mouth texture from simmered connective tissue, while the Nankotsu offers a tender beef diaphragm that stands out as the shop's most popular item. This is not a place for the faint of heart, but a destination for those seeking the authentic, unadulterated taste of Tokyo's yakitori culture.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order the Kobukuro (pork tongue) skewer to experience a texture surprisingly similar to beef tongue that pairs perfectly with their house miso.
- Try the Sashimi cut from the neck area, which is best enjoyed after being braised and grilled to highlight its fatty richness.
- Share the Shiro (root end of the pork tongue) if you prefer cuts with a higher fat content and extra tenderness.
