Best kushiyakis in Singapore

You may think of kushiyaki as simple skewered meats and vegetables, but their unpretentious presentation belies the precision that go into grilling them. A kushiyaki done well should yield a woody or smoky aroma, and ingredients that explode with flavour.

For this column, we tried the entire range of kushiyaki, from the commonly sighted yakitori to more premium varieties like grilled foie gras, and round up 10 establishments that make the cut.
