Try making dried-fish using delicious fish from Naruto !

For this activity we use mackerel and horse mackerel, which are comparatively easy to handle. These fresh fish are carefully selected from those raised in the whirlpools of the Naruto Strait.

This activity is okay even for children who have never touched raw fish before! Our staff will carefully explain how to prepare the fish and be there to support you during the entire process.

At Toyota Shoten, we take full advantage of our great location on the Oge Kainan Dori and spare no time or effort in making dried-fish by hand each day, utilizing our special techniques. Plenty of exposure to the sun and salty sea breeze of Naruto erases the fishy smell and aids in the formation of the umami ingredients glutamic acid and amino acid, resulting in a top-quality taste.

While waiting for the fish to dry in the sun, enjoy tasting some of Toyota Shoten's prized dried-fish. The taste of dried-fish while gazing out at the Naruto Sea from the terrace and listening to the sounds of waves, is truly amazing.

Take your hand-made dried fish home with you as a souvenir. This activity will certainly serve as an irreplaceable travel memory!
