OKINAWA NAHA: Okinawa GO (Garlic Onion) Chicken for Christmas! BUT SUPER DRY... sad. (Sony RX100, D7100)

Its super traditional in Japan that on Christmas Day you eat chicken... on the mainland its KFC where you need to make a reservation otherwise no chicken for you on Xmas Day.


SO! I went to my favorite Rotisserie Chicken spot in Okinawa.

The male chef was super busy boxing up a large number of chickens and his wife took my order.  No half sizes available on Christmas day so got that full 1800 yen bird.  Kinda of alot for 1 person.




Wrapped in Foil!

Not sure about you but staring down a full chicken kinda gave me the creeps...


After exploring all areas of the full chicken I noticed there was really no juiciness... I think the chef had to prepare so many that they weren`t hot or juicy.  It was just a dry chicken.

Inside the chicken was a huge portion of minced garlic.

Wish bone! Haven`t seen one of these in 20 years.  I learned not to visit Okinawa GO Chicken on the holidays. Definitely give them a try any other day... usually its piping hot and incredibly tender.  



That neglected Nissan Z32 Turbo (Fairlady Z) is still there... needs a rescue.
