    3500円の「ブリ丼」をいただきました。氷見の寒ブリを期待していたのですが、出てきたブリの身は、スーパーで売っている安いブリのクオリティーでした。金額にすれば750円くらいが妥当でしょう。この店は、絶対にオススメできません。氷見市にとっても、面汚しのお店だと思います。

Toyama Areas

Toyama is one of the three prefectures that house the Japanese Alps, with its southern and eastern borders comprising one long stretch of mountains, out of which the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route is forged. While traditional crafts fill the northern coastal cities of Toyama and Takaoka, thatched roof houses offer unrivalled views against a backdrop of fantastic scenery at Gokayama in the mountainous area in the south of the prefecture.
