Wana Tedome doesn¡¯t mess with any ordinary meat. ¡°Deer, not cow. Boar, not pig,¡± the illuminated street-level sign outside proclaims in Japanese. ¡°Grilled venison, grilled boar and grilled pheasant.¡±

Welcome to where the wild things are.

To emphasize the point, that same sign shows a stag¡¯s head in silhouette. Slide open the door and you find the real thing: a handsome 10-point hart gazing down at you from high up on the wall. This is no mere decoration. It is advertising the main component of the menu.
