OKINAWA URASOE: Brand New Bueno Chicken Location. Its sooooo nice and staff super friendly!! Garlic Chicken Boys!! (Sony RX100, Nikon D5100)

When in Okinawa there are 2 things you must eat.  Tacos and Rotisserie Garlic Chicken!

Brand new Bueno Chicken in Urasoe.  The old shop is just a few steps away but its being mainly used as a prep space for all their chickens.

Huge counter eating with clear views of all the chefs!

There were soooo many people working here.  Business is good.

The Menu.  1/2 size 1,000 yen and full bird 2,000 yen.  If you want to dine in its an additional 100 yen.

The chickens are raised locally in a town called Yambaru:

Here we gooo

Chicken is double wrapped in tin foil

Lots of garlic chunks!

Being a 1/2 chicken there are juicy parts and white meat parts.  But it sat in a nice bed of super flavorful chicken juice.   Totally finished this.

Seems they also sell Chickens online.  Freshly shrink wrapped.

Post for the upcoming Nakano Champuru Festival on July 15 and 16th

Think these folks are the founders.

Small gift area.

Lots of table seating!

Overall when in Okinawa you gotta give Bueno Chicken a try!  I was chatting with the cashier on the way out and she introduced me to once of the male chefs.  He later said his good byes in perfect English... If you need a little language help just look for the well sun burnt middle aged male chef who is totally bilingual.

OKINAWA URASOE: Bueno Chicken! Rotisserie chicken on a bed of chopped garlic... Tasty! (Sony RX100)

I mentioned to a Tokyo friend I was going to visit Okinawa for a few days and immediately she said goto Bueno Chicken!  I'm a huge fan of rotisserie chicken and even more for small locally owned businesses so it was on my list!  About a 30 minute bike ride from Naha Kokusai Street to Urasoe.

Due to Coronavirus they only allow one person to sit in the waiting area so couldn't get any shots of the kitchen.  There were 4 ladies waiting outside with me... popular with locals!

Chicken keeps spinning!

Interesting no-contact automatic payment system... almost looked like a printer.

1/2 a chicken for 850 yen and think a full bird was 1,700.

All that Garlic!  It wasn't tender and had a bit of a crunch to it... 

The tender juiciness varied from the different areas of the chicken but overall the flavor was mild and that might have been the aim as the garlic adds a nice punch.  Will probably try again on my next visit.

Plan was to bike ride to the pier and enjoy my chicken but that Okinawan sun is piercing... in just a few days I was all red and pealing.   Cat had the right idea... shade!
