Nakatsu Karaage
When you bite through the thin, crispy coating, you experience a robust seasoning of garlic and ginger. It remains delicious even when cold, but is even better freshly fried. This is the pride of a city known as the 'Holy Land' of karaage. After the war, Nakatsu became a place where chicken was easy to obtain due to government poultry promotion, allowing specialty shops to take root. It is said that around 1970, shops like Moriyama Karaage (now Moriyama) opened, and the name 'Nakatsu Karaage' spread through subsequent store expansions. In 2010, shop owners established the 'Holy Land Nakatsu Karaage Association.' This is a highly competitive area where each shop protects its own secret sauce of soy sauce, garlic, and ginger. Comparing the different flavors is a unique pleasure found only in this city.
