Kushitei, a specialty kushiage restaurant operated by Real Taste Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Toshima-ku, Tokyo; President & CEO: Yuta Endo), has launched its summer-limited seasonal menu, 'Summer New Kushi,' starting July 6, 2026.

Kushitei – A Kushiage Restaurant to Savor the Seasons

Kushitei is a specialty kushiage restaurant that follows the concept of 'technique in batter, seasonality in ingredients, and meticulous frying of each skewer.' We carefully prepare each skewer using carefully selected ingredients.

By starting frying only after receiving your order, we deliver freshly fried kushiage with a light, crisp coating and the full, natural flavor of the ingredients locked inside. We precisely adjust the thickness of the batter, frying time, and temperature for each ingredient to maximize its unique characteristics. At Kushitei, we value the seasonal highlights of each season—spring, early summer, summer, autumn, and winter—and offer limited-time skewers tailored to each. By incorporating seasonal ingredients available only at that time, we allow you to enjoy the changing seasons through kushiage.

This year's 'Summer New Kushi' lineup embodies Kushitei's unique dedication to seasonality.

[Summer Flavors, Crafted into a Single Skewer at Kushitei]

Corn

Featuring peak-season summer corn. To highlight the beauty of the kernels, we intentionally create 'windows' in the batter so the golden kernels are visible. Frying enhances the natural sweetness, allowing you to enjoy a harmonious blend of sweetness and aroma.

White Peach with Prosciutto and Mascarpone

A summer-only creative skewer combining the juicy sweetness of ripe white peaches, the mild saltiness of prosciutto, and the creamy richness of mascarpone. Despite the unexpected combination, the ingredients harmonize beautifully, offering a novel taste experience unique to kushiage.

Dried Ayu (Sweetfish)

A summer-exclusive menu item featuring ayu, a seasonal delicacy. A light coating allows you to fully enjoy the distinctive aroma and plump texture of ayu.

Summer Cod with Green Yuzu

Combines delicate, mild summer cod with refreshing green yuzu, known for its bright citrus aroma. Despite being a fried dish, it delivers a light, summery coolness without heaviness.

Thick Shiitake Mushroom

We select thick, meaty shiitake mushrooms to deliver rich umami and juicy texture with every bite. A simple skewer that highlights the ingredient's natural deliciousness.

Lamb Shoulder Loin (Jingisukan Style)

Uses flavorful lamb shoulder loin, capturing the essence of Jingisukan in kushiage form. A light batter enhances the richness of the lamb, creating an addictive taste.

Simmered Daikon with Tosa Fry and Yamagata Dashi

Combines tender, slow-simmered daikon with the roasted aroma of Tosa fry and the refreshing flavor of Yamagata dashi. A seasonal dish that condenses Japanese culinary techniques into a single skewer.

[Dedicated to Freshly Fried, One Skewer at a Time]

At Kushitei, we fry each skewer individually after your order. We carefully determine the optimal frying time and temperature for each ingredient, aiming for a light exterior and an interior that locks in the ingredient's natural flavor.

Seasonal limited skewers are available as part of our omakase course or à la carte. We invite you to enjoy the live cooking experience, the aroma and texture of freshly fried kushiage, and the seasonal flavors of each season at Kushitei.
