| Remarks |
This is Izakaya (Japanese-style bar) that specializes in fresh fish and sake. |
As I walked past the restaurant, I noticed the sign that read "Ishinomaki-Sourced Ise Lobster."
Due to climate change, it seems that Ise lobsters have been caught off the Sanriku coast in recent years, and I heard on the news that there was a large catch in Shizugawa recently.
I had to try it!
Upon entering the restaurant, I was greeted by a beautiful interior.
The owner looked quite young, and when I asked, he mentioned that the restaurant has been open for about three years.
I started off with a refreshing draft beer.
The appetizer was harako-meshi (salmon roe rice).
Served in a temari sushi style, the harako-meshi was exquisite!
The fish was rich and fatty, and there was plenty of salmon roe.
It’s always a delight when the appetizer is delicious.
Next, I tried the anago (conger eel) fried in bamboo charcoal.
It looked pitch black, but inside was perfectly cooked anago (laughs).
After enjoying two glasses of draft beer, I received the Ise lobster.
Watching the preparation was quite enjoyable.
After a while, the sashimi of Ise lobster was served.
It was a nice size, perfect for one person.
Taking a bite, I found it to be incredibly firm and fresh!
It had a hint of sweetness as well.
This calls for some Japanese sake.
I had Harumiko, Aki Harumiko, Moriizumi, and Iwaki Kotobuki, all of which were crisp and refreshing.
To finish off, they made a miso soup with the lobster head.
What a wonderful restaurant!
