About the book

The first cookbook from Hong Kong's cult yakitori restaurant, Yardbird, puts chicken front and center – taking grilling to a whole new level.

Chicken is the world's most beloved meat, and yakitori is one of the simplest and healthiest ways to prepare it. At Yardbird in Hong Kong, Canadian chef Matt Abergel put yakitori on the global culinary map. In this book, presented with vibrant style and strong visual references that reflect Abergel's passion for skateboarding, he reveals the secrets of the restaurant's signature recipes, with detailed explanations on how chicken is sourced, butchered, skewered, and cooked – without the need for special equipment. Fire up the grill and enjoy. As the first comprehensive yakitori book published in English, it is intended for both home cooks and professionals.

About the author

Reviews

"Perfectly captures the spirit of this vibrant Hong Kong spot." — AsiaTatler

"More than just a cookbook... we dare you not to be delighted." — Wallpaper*

"Matt Abergel, of Hong Kong's Yardbird restaurant, joins the ranks of chef-authors like Ferran Adrià, René Redzepi, André Chiang, and Magnus Nilsson with the release of his first cookbook from Phaidon. This publishing house is among the most prestigious publishers of high-end cookbooks in the world, and being published by Phaidon is a great recognition for any chef." — South China Morning Post

"The first comprehensive yakitori book published in English." — BK.Asia-City.com (Thailand)

"Much more than a cookbook, Chicken and Charcoal also explores the team's passions, as well as collaborations with artists, designers, illustrators, and brands like Vans, Carhartt WIP, and Stussy. With the unique style and strong visual identity of artist Evan Hecox, the book reveals the magic of the restaurant's food and drink, but also the story of how Yardbird came to be, grew, and where it is today." — The Nation (Thailand)

How to choose the first Japanese knife?

If you are buying your first Japanese knife, the advice is to choose a multifunctional blade shape that will cover the widest range of your needs in the kitchen. This includes Gyuto, Santoku and Bunka. The rule is that bigger people need bigger knives and vice versa.

Japanese knife as a perfect gift

Although in the culture of the Far East it is not recommended to give a blade as a gift because of the connection with cutting off good relations, they also could not resist the perfection of such a gift, so they devised a "trick" that allows them to gift knives without problems. Just ask for one coin from the person receiving the gift and in the eyes of strict superstition spirits it will be a fair exchange. Now no joke, a knife is a gift that unlike other transient things will be remembered forever because it will serve forever.
