Experience the Delight of Fresh Katsu at the New Seasonal Festival in April 2026

Fresh Katsu Festival: A Culinary Delight in April 2026

In April 2026, experience a culinary festival like no other at the seafood restaurants `Sakurasuisan`, `Uosama`, and `Uo ga Ichiban`. From April 1st to April 30th, indulge in the luxury of fresh seasonal katsu, a spring delicacy that has charmed the locals of Edo for generations. This event is hosted by Teraken Co., Ltd., renowned for its dedication to exceptional quality and fresh seafood, based in Chiyoda, Tokyo.

A Commitment to Freshness

One of the standout offerings during this festival is the `shinmono nama hatsukatsu`, known for being an epitome of freshness. Katsu, recognized for its quick catch and short shelf life, is flown directly from Toyosu Market every morning. The fish is expertly filleted by skilled chefs in-house without ever being frozen, preserving the authentic taste and texture. This meticulous process minimizes exposure to air, capturing the bright red hue and refreshing aroma of the fish perfectly.

Highlighted Dish: ‘Uzuwaka’ with a Twist

A unique feature of this festival is an inventive rendition of the traditional `uzuwaka` from the Izu region, a fisherman’s delight. Our chefs blend fresh initial katsu with a special miso that incorporates fresh green chili, creating a dish that offers a refreshing spiciness that elevates the umami of the katsu. It’s a flavor experience that once tasted, is sure to linger in your memory.

Dish Lineup (All priced at 699 yen, tax included 768 yen)

Experience the culinary magic of the katsu, celebrated since the Edo period with the phrase `a rainbow stands on the cutting board`. The vitality of spring expressed in every bite can only be enjoyed fresh, so make sure to visit your nearest location for this limited time offering.
