Although Wakayama (Japanese: 和歌山) is relatively provincial in Japan, you can still enjoy delicious seafood here. This restaurant is very popular, you cannot go in if you haven’t booked it in advance.
The appetizer is on the house, a piece of cold handmade tofu with very rich taste, it is dense as cheesecake, refreshing and tasty.
The menu is quite simple, there are 4 culinary styles in total, and all ingredients are fish freshly bought from the market on that day.
The sashimi on the seafood bowl is fresh and delicious, but the most wonderful is the egg yolk in the middle, very thick and eggy.
Soup boil fish is a bit sweet, the flesh is tender but has a lot of bones.
Perhaps the seafood is really fresh, the tempura is very juicy inside, a lot different from the normal one.
Barbecue fish is made by order, the skin and bones are crispy while the flesh is still soft and tender, they have very good cooks.
The restaurant use ‘Sakana Takumi (魚匠)’ as its name, which means ‘Artisan of fish’. On the other hand, this meal only cost around 1500 yen per person, very reasonable.
