Seasonal Seafood from the Buzen Sea｜Local Flavors of Kokura
Japan is surrounded by the sea, and seafood has always played an important role in Japanese cuisine.
At AMANO in Kokura, we place great importance on using carefully selected seasonal ingredients.
One of our specialties is seafood from the Buzen Sea.
The Buzen Sea is located near Kitakyushu and is known for its rich marine environment. The seafood changes throughout the year, allowing us to offer different flavors depending on the season.
Taste the Seasons of Japan
Japanese cuisine is deeply connected to the changing seasons.
Instead of serving exactly the same menu throughout the year, we select ingredients according to what is at its best.
This may include seasonal seafood, fresh sashimi, tempura and other Japanese dishes.
For international visitors, this is a wonderful opportunity to experience an important part of Japanese food culture.
From the Market to Your Table
We carefully select the ingredients we use and prepare them in ways that bring out their natural flavor.
For tempura, each ingredient requires a different cooking temperature and timing.
Our chefs carefully adjust the cooking process to create a light and delicate texture while preserving the flavor of the ingredients.
Whether you enjoy seafood as sashimi, sushi or tempura, we hope you will discover the natural flavors of the season.
If you are looking for an authentic Japanese dining experience in Kokura, visit AMANO and experience the seasonal flavors of Kitakyushu.
Enjoy the taste of the sea and the changing seasons of Japan.
