This is behind the counter at a local Japanese yakitori shop Good morning, everyone.

這是當地一家日式烤雞肉串店的櫃檯後面 各位早上好。

程度副詞

I am here in Nakameguro, Tokyo, and I'm taking you behind the counter at a local Japanese yakitori shop There's a little bit of construction going on just over there.

我現在在東京的中目黑，帶您參觀一家當地的日式烤雞店。

So I don't even know if you guys can hear me So I'm gonna make this intro quick.

我都不知道你們聽不聽得見我的聲音 所以我的開場白要快一點

Actually, he's here right now Good morning!

事實上，他現在就在這裡 早上好！

This is Toriyoshi, a local Japanese yakitori shop run by a 72 year old master That's been around for almost 30 years Serving freshly grilled chicken skewers.

這是一家當地的日式烤雞串店，由一位 72 歲的師傅經營，已有近 30 年的歷史。

With a humble beginning the small shop quickly gained a reputation among locals for its high quality freshness and Authenticity.

起初，這家小店並不起眼，但很快就以其高品質的新鮮度和正宗性在當地人中贏得了聲譽。

Just a three minute walk from Tokyo's Nakameguro station I'm taking you behind the counter of this hidden gem and into the heart of one of my favorite yakitori shops So the shop opens at 4 in the afternoon But the workers are here early in the morning to start the prep Hi, what's that?

從東京中目黑站步行只需三分鐘，我將帶您走進這家隱祕小店的櫃檯後面，走進我最喜歡的烤雞肉串店之一的中心。

So how long have you been working here for?

That's Inomata-san, the owner and the master of the shop Apparently, there's a second shop just around the corner where their fresh chickens are dressed every morning And as the master, Inomata-san goes back and forth to oversee the prep.

這就是豬俁先生，店主，也是這家店的主人。顯然，就在拐角處還有一家店，每天早上都會在那裡給新鮮的雞穿衣，而作為主人，豬俁先生會來回監督準備工作。

So how long have you been running the shop?

Starting at 18, years of hard work, dedication and passion for his craft allowed him to build six successful Yakitori shops while also endearing his customers to a point where they don't even call him master, but rather the legend So do you actually still have to work?

從 18 歲開始，多年的努力、奉獻和對手藝的熱情讓他成功打造了六家烤雞店，同時也讓他的顧客對他愛不釋手，甚至不稱他為師傅，而是稱他為傳奇人物。 那麼，你真的還需要工作嗎？

Apparently before opening this shop He meandered at local restaurants in France for 14 years and during that time married a French woman But sadly due to unfortunate circumstances, she passed away.

顯然，在開這家店之前，他在法國當地的餐館輾轉了 14 年，期間與一位法國女士結了婚，但不幸的是，這位女士去世了。

He eventually restarted his life in Japan.

最終，他在日本重新開始了自己的生活。

So the shop uses a special Date-dori chicken Which is delivered fresh every single day directly from a farm in the southern part of Japan's Tohoku region The chickens are raised near pristine waters and natural surroundings and are known for their exceptional quality, taste, soft juicy texture with an elegant umami flavor Hi, what are you thinking right now?

這些雞在純淨的水域和自然環境附近飼養，以其卓越的品質、口感、柔軟多汁的質地以及優雅的鮮味而聞名。

Okay, how long have you been working here?

Okay, so how'd you master the art of yakitori?

好吧，你是如何掌握烤雞肉串的技藝的？

That sounds like an exceptionally long journey, does that mean only masters are allowed to grill?

這聽起來像是一段特別漫長的旅程，這是否意味著只有大師才能燒烤？

I see, so what's the most challenging part?

我明白了，那麼最具挑戰性的部分是什麼？

That Japanese Riz So how many yakitori do you have on the menu?

Just between you and me, is there a secret menu?

Oh, you gotta tell me Whoa, seseri is my favorite!

哦，你得告訴我 哇，我最喜歡芝麻裡了！

He mentions that customers typically don't know about the unwritten menu But their curiosity is piqued after a few visits and seeing other customers ordering unfamiliar items Which they ask the chef about and ultimately order for themselves Hi, what's that?

他提到，顧客通常並不知道這些不成文的菜單，但在幾次光顧後，他們的好奇心就會被激發出來，看到其他顧客點了不熟悉的菜品，他們就會向廚師詢問，並最終自己點菜 嗨，那是什麼？

很好，你不浪費任何東西，是吧？

Now back to the main shop Oh, Inomata-san folding hand towels for the customers In Japan, it's typical for many restaurants to use vendors to prepare their hand towels But he prefers to do it in-house to remind himself and his workers of their omotenashi culture Which is a Japanese hospitality and manner to wholeheartedly look after their guests without expecting anything in return So what do you like about working here?

現在回到主店 哦，豬又先生正在為顧客摺疊手巾 在日本，許多餐館通常會使用供應商來準備手巾，但他更喜歡自己動手，以提醒自己和他的員工們 "omotenashi "文化。

That's awesome, what do you do on your free time?

太棒了，你在空閒時間都做些什麼？

Dope Oh, he's repairing the chicken skin, hello So where are you from?

哦，他在修補雞皮，你好，你從哪裡來？

Apparently he came all the way from the Kansai area to specifically study under the legend And has been doing so for the last four years.

顯然，他專程從關西地區趕來，就是為了拜這位傳奇人物為師，而且在過去四年裡一直如此。

Do you ever want to start your own restaurant?

So how much longer do you have to study to do it?

那麼，你還需要學習多久才能做到這一點呢？

So A little before noon the shop must begin preparing the yakitori grill Skillfully arranging the charcoal pieces like an intricate puzzle ensuring a uniform and consistent heat source to grill the chicken skewers Oh, that's nukazuke, Japanese pickles fermented in rice bran It's a side dish that many of their customers secretly love Not all restaurants in japan make it from scratch and this shop takes it even further by using their own secret recipe Foreign Guys don't use machines you must be quite strong to do this, huh?

是以，在中午稍早之前，店家就必須開始準備烤雞肉串，熟練地將炭塊擺放整齊，就像一個複雜的拼圖，確保均勻一致的熱源，以烤制雞肉串 哦，那是 nukazuke，用米糠發酵的日本醃菜，是許多顧客暗自喜愛的配菜，並非所有的日本餐廳都從頭開始製作，而這家店則更進一步，使用自己的祕方。

You work out as well Oh what position Yeah, to be honest, I really don't know the positions you must be fast then Apparently he played pretty seriously in a college league when he was studying at a sports university now that he works here He plays on an adult team on the weekends.

是的，說實話，我真的不知道你的位置，那你一定跑得很快。很顯然，他在體育大學學習的時候，在大學聯賽中踢得很認真，現在他在這裡工作，週末會參加成人隊的比賽。

Damn he takes it seriously Hey, so what kind of food you like other than yakitori Oh really Yeah Thank you for the legendary advice So before we continue on I want to tell you guys about the awesome people at books who also sponsor this video I know that many of you have already subscribed which is awesome But for those of you who don't know they provide a premium experience of japanese snacks candies and tea pairings delivered to your front door They work with family businesses all over japan and deliver a new theme of authentic treats each and every month First time users will get a seasons of japan box and after that you'll get a theme box like this one This month's theme is sunny okinawa japan's southernmost prefecture of tropical islands making it a natural home for unique ingredients Which books who celebrates with each snack my favorite this month is a kuro mitsu kinako mochi Which you can try for yourself So get 15 off your own authentic japanese subscription snack box from books by using my code palo and link in the description Oh, it looks like the workers are gonna take a break Hey, what are you eating?

他還真認真啊除了烤雞肉串，你還喜歡哪種食物？ 真的嗎？ 謝謝你的傳奇建議 在我們繼續之前，我想向大家介紹一下贊助本視頻的圖書公司，我知道你們中的很多人已經訂閱了，這很不錯。本月的主題是陽光明媚的沖繩縣，日本最南端的熱帶島嶼使其成為獨特食材的天然產地、嘿，你在吃什麼？

Okay So during this break the workers are free to do and eat whatever they want.

好吧，在這個休息時間裡，工人們可以自由活動，想吃什麼就吃什麼。

What did you buy I'm Now that everyone has returned from break the shop ramps up their preparation for its open which is in two hours from here on There's no time to rest as they all must work as a team to get everything done on time Oh Wow, the legend is handcrafting the pickles himself, although it's a minor dish in the shop His attention to detail is unmatched and is another reason why it's so popular among the locals So, where do you live Yeah Damn I might be closer to the shop What do you do when it rains No wonder why you're still at it So which yakitori do you like best So, how do you count the orders at the end Ah, I see the chef puts a tag in this box for each table and counts them up at the end At 4 p.m, the shop finally opens for business and there's already a group of customers Okay In japan It's typical to have counter seats like this where the yakitori is grilled in the center by the chef It may be quite intimidating to those who've never experienced it before But it's actually a great way to order as you can see what everyone else is eating Which allows customers to point out various foods to the chef that they might want to try for themselves The legend says that there's often a chain reaction when someone has served their dish and the people around see it and end up ordering The same thing Oh, that's tare a special sauce used to coat the yakitori usually made with soy sauce mirin and sugar and many shops have their own Signature recipe I tell you though.

你買了什麼？ 我買了 現在大家都休息回來了 店裡加緊準備兩小時後的開業典禮你住在哪裡？ 是啊，該死的，我可能離店更近些 下雨天你會做什麼？ 難怪你還在店裡 你最喜歡哪種烤雞肉串？m,店裡終於開始營業了 已經有一群客人了 在日本，通常會有這樣的櫃檯 由廚師在中間烤制烤雞肉串因為您可以看到其他人在吃什麼，這樣顧客就可以向廚師指出他們可能想親自嘗試的各種食物。傳說中，當有人端出自己的菜餚時，周圍的人看到後往往會產生連鎖反應，最終點同樣的東西、那是 "たれ"，用來給烤雞肉串裹上一層特殊的醬汁，通常是用醬油、米林和

Nothing beats the aroma of charcoal smoked chicken covered with a sizzling tare Hi, are you a regular?

So Oh, how long have you been coming here?

What's your favorite yakitori Oh, thanks Do you have a lot of regulars Wow, that's pretty amazing I know that one firsthand apparently inomata-san doesn't take reservations for the shop So it's first come first serve and there's often a line out the door And once the seats fill up is when we truly get to see the legend at his craft as he effortlessly commits several orders to memory in addition to perfectly grilling yakitori all the while his customers engaging him in Conversation a true master of his craft gained only from decades of experience Hi, do you come here often?

你最喜歡哪種烤雞肉串 謝謝 你有很多常客嗎？我可是親身經歷過的 豬又先生的店是不接受預訂的 所以先到先得，店門口經常排起長隊 座位坐滿後，我們才真正見識到這位傳奇人物的手藝 他除了完美地烤制烤串外，還能毫不費力地把幾道菜記在腦子裡

Oh man, it's hot on this side Oh Really why don't you use fans or something?

哦，天哪，這邊好熱 哦，真的，你為什麼不用風扇什麼的？

He says that anyone is able to grill yakitori But only someone who understands each ingredient and knows how it behaves within under the heated charcoal can ever master all of the techniques Which in many cases takes years of training Which is why at his shop only a few of their top yakitori masters are permitted to grill in front of their customers So what do you enjoy the most about this job?

他說，任何人都能烤制烤雞肉串，但只有瞭解每種配料並知道它們在加熱的木炭中的表現的人，才能掌握所有的技巧，而這在很多情況下需要多年的培訓，這就是為什麼在他的店裡，只有少數頂級烤雞肉串大師才能在顧客面前烤制。

No He says that he finds a beauty in learning about his customer stories Which also inspires him to continue on with his craft each and every day Oh inamata-san's wife and baby are here apparently they often come here for a meal  Hi, does she go to nursery now, do you like it?

他說，瞭解顧客的故事是一種美，這也激勵著他每天繼續他的手藝 哦稻俁先生的妻子和孩子在這裡 顯然他們經常來這裡吃飯 嗨，她現在去託兒所嗎，你喜歡嗎？

Nice what are you planning to do for her birthday?

很好，你打算為她的生日做些什麼？

Hey can't complain about that And that's another one in the books.

嘿，這也沒什麼好抱怨的了，這又是一個值得紀念的時刻。
