Kanazawa’s Fresh Sazae Crabs at Kappa Sushi
Kappa Sushi, a member of the Colowide Group, recently announced a special event for crab lovers: the introduction of freshly caught “Sazae Crabs” from Kanazawa Port’s Ishikawa Fishery Cooperative General Market. This special offering will coincide with the grand opening of their new restaurant in Komatsu, which officially opened on November 6, 2025.
During the “First Auction Crab” event held at Kanazawa Port, Kappa Sushi sourced these exceptional Sazae crabs through a competitive bidding process, emphasizing their commitment to quality and sustainability. For two days, from November 8 to November 9, 2025, Kappa Sushi will feature three exclusive dishes made with these premium crabs at four locations in the Hokuriku region, including Ishikawa, Fukui, and Toyama.
As the fishing population declines, Kappa Sushi is dedicated to preserving the charm and value of Japanese seafood for future generations. Their efforts aim to connect the community and the ocean through sustainable practices. By offering these Sazae crabs at an accessible price, Kappa Sushi hopes to contribute to the local economy while delighting residents in the Hokuriku area.
The exclusive offerings at Kappa Sushi include:
- - “Ishikawa Sazae Crab Nigiri” for 990 yen
- - “Ishikawa Sazae Crab Gunkan” for 790 yen
- - “Ishikawa Sazae Crab Miso Soup” for 590 yen
This limited-time event not only showcases the rich flavors of local seafood but also provides an exciting dining experience that Kappa Sushi continues to strive for. The ongoing efforts to enrich meal times are part of their mission to bring joy to customers daily.
To learn more about the products and offerings, visit the official Kappa Sushi website. Keep in mind that these Sazae crab dishes will be available exclusively in the four specified locations, and delivery services will not be provided.
Photos are illustrative, and while the crab miso will incorporate both Ishikawa Sazae crab and red Sazae crab varieties, there may be variations in the crab parts used for the gunkan dish.
Join Kappa Sushi in celebrating the beauty of local fishing and enjoy a delicious meal made with fresh Sazae crabs, committed to sustainability and community.
