Making full use of the fact that it started out in Noto’s Ushitsu area, “Ajiraku Yumeri” sources its seafood in a unique way. This restaurant was founded with the desire to offer the freshest, most delicious food. The “Sashimi (sliced raw fish) Platter” on any given day is glistening and alluring, piled with rockfish, flounder, whale, tilefish, Japanese amberjack, whelks, and mackerel all fished that day from Noto. The fish, which are auctioned off at 7 each morning at Ushitsu fishing harbor are delivered to the restaurant in time for service that day, and promptly prepared. To go along with the seafood is local sake (Japanese alcohol) sourced from five distilleries. The owner loves the place where he was born and is captivated by the local foodstuffs.

“Rather than tuna or salted salmon roe that you can get anywhere, I want to offer up seafood that you can’t taste anywhere but in my hometown of Kanazawa,” says Mr. Hiroshi Toki, owner of “Hibi Sakanazuki Toboku.” As put forth in the restaurant’s name, the words “Hibi Sakanazuki” (loving fish every day) came from his realisation upon returning to his hometown of Kanazawa after working in Kyoto and Tokyo, of the easy deliciousness of fish that can be found anywhere. This is the place to appreciate the true flavors of Kanazawa-style fish and drink Kanazawa-style sake (Japanese alcohol).
