Tenya's Seasonal Offerings to Savor

As the seasons shift and the warmer days of summer approach, Tenya, a celebrated name in Japanese cuisine, is excited to announce its latest limited-time offerings. From April 23, 2026, to early June, customers can indulge in a delightful array of seafood dishes inspired by the rich culinary traditions of Japan. This initiative falls under the Royal Group's campaign, 'Good JAPAN', which aims to celebrate the unique flavors of various regions across the country.

Unveiling the Summer Delicacies

Tenya's summer menu showcases a range of dishes that highlight the freshness and flavors of the ocean. Key ingredients sourced from various parts of Japan include:

• - Hotaru Ika (firefly squid) from Toyama Prefecture, known for its rich taste and tender texture.
• - Aosa Nori (a type of seaweed) from Mie Prefecture, renowned for its vibrant green color and crispiness.
• - Aji (horse mackerel) caught in Tottori's Sakai Port, which provides plump and flavorful bites.

These ingredients come together to create three standout dishes that are sure to excite seafood lovers. Whether dining in or enjoying a meal at home, Tenya encourages all to embrace the seasonal flavors of summer.

Featured Dishes

1. Umikaze Tendon (Sea Breeze Tempura Rice Bowl)
This exquisite dish features a crispy tempura made from Toyama's hotaru ika and Mie's aosa nori, accompanied by a perfectly cooked aji tempura sourced from Sakai Port. The bowl is adorned with a colorful medley of ingredients, including shrimp, lotus root, and okra, offering a symphony of textures and tastes.

2. Hotaru Ika and Aosa Kakiage Soba (Noodles with Tempura)
Highlighting the intense flavors of Toyama’s hotaru ika and the aromatic sea scent of aosa nori, this dish presents a delightful kakiage (tempura fritter) paired with Tenya's signature soba noodles. Customers are encouraged to enjoy this dish cold for a refreshing experience that complements the summer heat.

3. Shoka Gochisou Tendon (Summer Feast Tempura Rice Bowl)
Taking indulgence to another level, this dish features succulent natural ebi (shrimp), tender anago (conger eel), and kisu (whiting). Finished with vibrant myoga (Japanese ginger) and shiso leaves for a refreshing flavor, this bowl captures the essence of summer dining.

Takeout Options

Tenya also offers a convenient takeaway option, ensuring that everyone can savor these seasonal delights at home.

Additionally, customers can bring home seasonal tempura assortments and individual dishes to enjoy.
