Aku's BBQ is a yakitori and izakaya pop-up launched by Alec 'Aku' Ku, operating since 2020 across the Bay Area. Known for juicy skewers like chicken thighs marinated in Sichuan tare and yuzu kosho, Cook caters to local breweries and restaurants like Purity Wine and Cats Restaurant & Bar. The pop-up's seasonal menu features grilled items, rotating izakaya dishes such as prawn toast, and heartier winter options like curry bowls. Ku's culinary approach blends personal history with seasonal adjustments to create unique dining experiences.
"Yakitori is something I've made all my life. My family loved to do backyard barbecues."
"The menu is a little bit seasonal and also depends on the mood that I'm in."
