"In a quiet 14-seat Mount Pleasant counter, I found Chef Pete Ho has ushered in a new gold standard of yakitori in Vancouver. The multicourse omakase ranges from red crab chawanmushi with yuzu and crispy, delicately fried tofu accented with sweet soy to a centerpiece of skewers of chicken grilled over binchotan coals. Using specially sourced heritage-breed birds, skillful butchery, masterful seasoning—including a special tare maintained over decades—and brilliant grill technique, the results are uncomplicated yet profound: impeccably cooked crisp-skinned breast and thigh and revelatory less conventional cuts like chicken “oysters” and heart. It's no wonder this is the most hotly in-demand reservation in town." - The MICHELIN Guide
