Yamaguchi Pref. Hagishi Hijiwara 370-71

Hagi Shinkai is a restaurant next to Hagi Bridge specializing in Fugu (Pufferfish) and fresh fish from the restaurant’s own fish-tanks; the restaurant building, which resembles a white lighthouse, is very distinctive. Inside, the restaurant has the finest fish-tanks in Yamaguchi Prefecture, with squid, stonefish, flounder and other local fish species swimming around vigorously. Hagi Shinkai is famous for its squid dishes (made using squid from the restaurant’s own tanks), which have an exquisite flavor that permeates every mouthful; for these dishes, the squid is ultra-fresh, not being taken out of the tank until immediately before the dish is prepared. The Fugu (Pufferfish) set meal, which is available in the winter months, and the flounder set meal available in the summer months, need to be booked in advance.

Fair warning the staff does not speak English nor do they have an English menu. It does help to know some Japanese phrases or at least be quick with google translate. The staff is fantastic and...

Yamaguchi Nagato-shi Senzaki 4137-3

"This Japanese restaurant is located near Senzaki Bay, one of the best fishing ports in western Japan. You can enjoy fresh fish and shellfish freshly auctioned off at the Senzaki market in the early morning. The Kensaki squid is called the ""queen of squids"" because of its beautiful, clear shape and soft taste, and it swims in large tanks. Only those that have been carefully caught one by one in Senzaki are called ""Senzaki squid,"" and the Senzaki squid from when the ""Senzaki In-Season Declaration"" was announced are called ""Senzaki butoika."" Their fresh squid course with Senzaki squid sushi and other small dishes such as fried items, is a loved signature item that you will not forget once you try it."

This restaurant is known for its hearty fisherman's cuisine and the cheerful shop mistress.

Their most popular dish is the Unidon Teishoku, featuring a whole box of raw sea urchin over rice. It's an extravagant meal set, with a sashimi platter of treats like yellowtail amberjack, squid, octopus, and more, and small side dishes and miso soup.

There are plenty of regulars and tourists who come by just to enjoy a talk with the mistress, as well!

お昼のランチで利用しました。他の方の口コミにある通り、メニューにお値段の表示がなくて不安なまま2人で雲丹丼と海鮮丼を注文しました。雲丹丼3600円、海鮮丼2600円ぐらいだったかな？単純にコスパを求める人には向かないと思いますが、女将さんと萩の町のことやら海産物の薀蓄やらを聞きながらというのは悪くなかったです。

A restaurant right in the center of Yanai. They offer a rich menu replete with both Japanese and Western cuisine. Their popular Hannya Gozen Meal is an example of local cuisine mixing Yanai's specialty Seto shellfish with fresh local vegetables, all mixed with rice and seasoned with soy sauce.

Yamaguchi Areas

Heading west along Japan’s largest island, Honshu, the very last prefecture you’ll reach is Yamaguchi, separated from Kyushu by a small strip of water known as the Kanmon Straits, which the far-reaching harbor city Shimonoseki looks over. With water at every turn, the seafood of Yamaguchi is an indisputable highlight, and we’re not talking just the usual fish dishes - the notorious fugu, or puffer fish, is a Japanese delicacy that was discovered in Yamaguchi prefecture, making it the best place to try it out.
