Aside from Tonkotsu Ramen , Mizutaki is another Fukuoka’s local specialty food that one must check out when travelling to Fukuoka. Mizutaki is Japanese chicken hot pot dish made of chicken and assorted vegetables and tofu, boiled or simmered in a large pot of broth.
Toriden Hakata Honten
Ahhhh, I once tried Toriden in Lot 10 The Table Isetan KL and I was hooked on its very essence-ful soupy chicken broth. Sadly, the one in KL was closed down and the only way to taste this delicious chicken hot pot dish is to have it in Fukuoka. After years, I have made it here!
Thanks to my friend Jessie for recommendation, I made it to Toriden Hakata Honten for their Mizutaki. I got the hotel’s receptionist to make the table reservation. Course meal is a must for table reservation (not sure about walk-in). It marks one of the best meals I had during my trip in Fukuoka. Rest assured, elderly will love this kind of food because it is nutrients-packed.
Getting here:
About 2 minutes’ walk from Nakasukawabata Station 中洲川端
There are 3 courses in the menu for the diners to choose from: Tenshin (¥ 6,600 per pax), Hakata (¥ 7,700 per pax) and Nakasu (¥ 9,900 per pax); all three courses have mizutaki in them. The more expensive courses have more signature dishes and appetisers, also more options for your desserts.
