Whenever you walk past Bridges Street in the evening or during weekends, there's always a line waiting to get into this small yakitori restaurant. So last Friday my friend and I decided to get there at 6pm to prevent the crazy crowd.We were seated at the basement as the ground floor was already full at 6. One of the waiters explained how the menu worked to us as it was our first time there. So basically there're 3 categories on the menu- small dishes, yakitori and dishes to share.We ordered a fe
We were seated at the basement as the ground floor was already full at 6. One of the waiters explained how the menu worked to us as it was our first time there. So basically there're 3 categories on the menu- small dishes, yakitori and dishes to share.
We ordered a few skewers and fried chicken to share. (We originally wanted to try the fried rice but the waiter said it might be too big for the 2 of us and suggest us order the fried chicken instead)
When the food came, we were so surprised by how TINY the portions were... (or maybe I'm a big eater so I'll leave the photos here for you to judge)
1. Meatball x2 ($96)
These bite-sized skewers are $48 each and they taste just like one of those you can get from the street venders for $10 (at most).

3. Pork Belly ($48)
This is my fav dish of the night but it's way too small. The size IRL is approximately 6cm in length lmao

4. Pork belly + Meatball
FYI you're supposed to dip the meatball into the soy sauce with the raw egg

5. Fried Chicken ($85)
Last but not least, here's the "dish to share"... There're 5 pieces of chicken in total, but each of them is smaller than a piece of McNugget. This is just a very close-up pic of the dish smh

We ordered a few more skewers but I wasn't bothered to take any more photos cuz I was too hangry at that time.
To conclude, Yardbird is really overpriced (and overhyped) in my opinion and the food was just so ordinary. I'd expect A LOT MORE paying that $.
