    Wakayama Pref. Shingushi Yokomachi 2-2-12
    This longstanding shop offers local Japanese cuisine and sushi with a focus on seafood, including Pacific saury, whale, and more. Located in Yokomachi, Shingu City, Wakayama Prefecture, its flagship item is “narezushi” made from salted saury that is pickled together with rice and fermented. This delicacy features a viscous texture and unique smell, sourness, and flavor. There’s also narezushi that has been liquefied like yogurt and kept for 30 years that goes well with sake.

    馴れ鮓が名物とのことですが、私は酸っぱいものが苦手なので食べられず・・クジラを目当てに行きました。お造りは、ミンククジラとニタリクジラの尾の身・赤身・畝須・ベーコン・うでものに加えイルカが含まれていました。生臭さがまるでなくとても美味しかった。

    Wakayama Pref. Higashimuroguntaijichou Taiji 2902-115
    This restaurant located in Taiji Town in Higashimuro County, Wakayama Prefecture only serves whale, a traditional local food. They use meat from whales caught in resource surveys and provide various dishes that were served from after the war until whaling restrictions went into effect. There’s whale cutlet curry made from minke whale and finback whale featuring succulent meat and special curry roux that is sure to stimulate the appetite. You can also enjoy whale sashimi to experience the true whale flavor, as well as “harihari nabe” hot pot (reservations required).

    鯨の街太地町には滅多に食べることの出来ない貴重な鯨料理を食べることの出来るお店が数軒あります。このくじら家はランチ営業のみなのでお昼に伺い、竜田揚げ定食とレディースセットを注文しました。 刺身は思ったより癖がなくさっぱりして美味しく、揚げ物も柔らかく食べ易かったです。 鯨肉を食べたことのない人にもお薦めのお店です。

    Wakayama Pref. Shingushi Yakushimachi 5-6
    This restaurant featuring local cuisine first opened in 1962. They offer fare such as oden hot pots, fried pork skewers, and mehari-zushi, a local Nanki-Shingu favorite. These rice balls wrapped in mustard leaves get their name from being so large that people's eyes go wide when they open their mouths to eat them. As they hold together well, they're known as one of Japan's favorite packed lunches. The shop always makes them fresh to order so customers can enjoy them right away at the peak of flavor. The shop moved to its current location in August 2018. The building's unique, circular shape will catch your attention.

    めはり寿司は寿司と言っても酸っぱくはなく、高菜おにぎりを海苔ではなくやっぱり高菜で包んだ感じのものです。串カツやおでんのセットを頼みたかったのですが、お腹の調子が今ひとつだったのでお蕎麦とのセットにしました。蕎麦は可もなく不可もなくという感じでした。まあ、めはり寿司が美味しかったので良し、という感じです。

    Wakayama Higashimuro-gun Nachikatsuuracho Tsukiji 4-3-27
    This restaurant is located along Prefectural Route 238, from the JR Kii-Katsuura Station. It offers a large number of dishes using fresh seafood caught in Katsuura, mainly featuring tuna, but also saury and turban shell. The Tekka-don rice bowl is one of its most popular dishes, with a veritable mountain of tuna piled on top, so much that one cannot see the rice underneath. There is also the Senryu set meal, which includes tuna sashimi and the local delicacy, saury sushi, as well as Tsukuri (sashimi) set meals which require a reservation to be made. The saury-shape sushi is also available for take-out as a souvenir. A telephone reservation is required for groups.

    紀伊勝浦駅前の漁港の和食屋さん。観光地プライスでもなく、ごく一般的な感じ。テーブルと座敷で10組ぐらいで満席となる。昼時だったので、すぐ満席になった。でも客の回転は結構早い感じ。
