More About Japan 
Since I was visiting Nagoya, I decided to try “Furaibo” (風来坊)—one of the most famous chicken wing spots alongside “Sekai no Yamachan”!
I heard that many locals prefer Furaibo over other options.
Even though I’ve had Nagoya-style “Tebasaki” (chicken wings) a few times before, I was still a beginner.
So, I took this opportunity to learn the proper way to eat Tebasaki!
Furaibo: A Must-Visit Spot for Nagoya-Style Chicken Wings
The Furaibo branch I visited is located near JR Owari-Ichinomiya Station.
Furaibo is a famous Aichi-based chain, and this is one of its many locations.
This is Furaibo’s entrance.
Next to the entrance, there’s an aquarium.
Maybe they also serve fresh seafood?
Well, I guess keeping a chicken farm outside the restaurant wouldn’t be an option. 😂
At the table, I found a guide called “How to Eat Tebasaki Properly”.
I’ll check it out once the wings arrive!
(Sorry for the glare in the photo…)
First, let’s cheers with a cold beer!
Next, a Tako (octopus) salad!
Both the octopus and vegetables were fresh.
Now for Miso Kushi Katsu! (Deep-fried pork skewers with miso sauce)
Inside, you’ll find juicy pork belly and green onions.
The miso sauce is rich but not overpowering—absolutely delicious!
Four Ways to Eat Chicken Wings—Which One Do You Prefer?
Finally, the star of the show: Tebasaki!
A huge pile of wings! This is five servings.
Time to check the official eating guide and try them out.
Method A: Bite the meat off the bone all at once.
Method B: Break it in half at the joint and eat each piece separately.
📝 My Review:
– A: Too hard! I couldn’t get the meat off cleanly.
– B: Too ordinary. Nothing special.
Hmm… not quite satisfying. Let’s try the next methods.
Method C: Twist and pull the bones out first, then eat.
Method D: Bite into the wing and pull out the bones with your teeth.
📝 My Review:
– C: Also difficult—I couldn’t get the bones out properly.
– D: Took a few tries, but I finally got it! This is my method of choice.
Alright, let’s break it down step by step!
Step 1: Grab a delicious-looking Tebasaki.
Step 2: Tear off one end of the wing.
Step 3: Bite down, remove the bones… but wait—I failed!
The bone ended up in my mouth. 😅
Let’s try again!
Success! When done right, it’s super satisfying. 😆
I also tried Teba Gyoza (chicken wing dumplings), which were piping hot and delicious!
And to my surprise, they even served sashimi—which was incredibly fresh and tasty!
