### ■ Juicy 'Toriten' with Oita's Authentic Flavor and a Simple, Comforting 'Dango-jiru'
The juicy toriten, made from chicken thighs, is a dish where you can enjoy the crispy texture of freshly fried tempura. You can enjoy it as is, or in the authentic Oita style with 'ponzu' sauce and 'neri-karashi' (Japanese mustard). The refreshing ponzu and the sharp accent of the mustard create a flavor you won't tire of. The toriten is also available for takeout, so you can savor the taste of Oita in your own home.
The 'dango-jiru' is a local miso-based soup from Oita using the region's barley miso. It's a hearty bowl filled with chewy, flat 'dango' dumplings, daikon radish, carrots, burdock root, onions, and pork. The gentle flavor infused with the umami of the ingredients and the satisfying dumplings make it a fulfilling dish. You can also add Yuzu kosho for a change of flavor. The dango-jiru can be ordered as a single item, or you can upgrade the miso soup of any other set meal or rice bowl to dango-jiru for an additional 370 yen. Please enjoy the delicious taste of Oita's local cuisine at your nearest Yayoiken.
