A Quick Question,

it is an electrical appliance, 


but what is it?

it looks like a horizontal single slice toaster, 

popular in Japan, it is for grilling chicken, it is a Yakitori, (Japanese: 焼き鳥) (literally 'grilled bird') a Japanese type of skewered chicken, it's preparation involves attaching the meat to a skewer, typically made of steel, bamboo, or similar materials, after which it is grilled over a charcoal fire,

grilling yakitori at home just got a lot easier thanks to the new Yakitorill: a combination of the words yakitori and grill,

 the unit was developed by Fukuoka-based firm Guardner, it promises less smoke and an overall cleaner experience, 

the manufacture claims that because the heat source is from the top of the unit, stopping the fat from burning, making less smoke in the process, 

skewer locks also make it easy to rotate the chicken, ensuring you get an even grill across the yakitori, other features include a splash guard that keeps your table grease-free and a serving plate that keeps the skewers warm, the unit sells for 22,000 yen, at today's rate £115.76 or $141.33, and now the bad news, from the sales page:

'This product is for use only in Japan. Please note that use overseas is not covered by the warranty or repair service'.

that's a shame it looked so good, it fact it is making me hungry just looking at it!
