Autumn has Arrived at Yayoi-ken with Sanma!

As the leaves begin to turn, the exciting flavors of autumn reappear at Yayoi-ken, a beloved dining spot across Japan. This year, they'll offer the grilled Sanma, known for its rich taste and delightful aroma, made from the finest catch of the season. Starting from September 16, customers can enjoy three delicious variations of their salt-grilled Sanma set meal, all featuring the succulent fish from the pristine waters of the Sanriku region.

Dive into Deliciousness

What makes this year’s Sanma so special at Yayoi-ken is that each fish is grilled fresh in the restaurant, ensuring a crispy, fragrant skin and a tender, juicy interior. Diners can relish the authentic taste of the fish paired with fresh grated daikon and zesty lemon. For those who prefer a twist on tradition, the complimentary dashi service allows guests to turn their grilled fish into a delightful ochazuke, a soothing rice dish topped with green tea.

This seasonal offering includes:

• - Sanma no Shio-yaki Teishoku (Salt-Grilled Sanma Set Meal) for just ¥990
• - Sanma no Shio-yaki Teishoku with Agedashi Nasu (Salt-Grilled Sanma with Fried Eggplant) for ¥1,190
• - Sanma no Shio-yaki Teishoku with Mini Sukiyaki (Salt-Grilled Sanma with Mini Sukiyaki) for ¥1,310

Each set provides a unique dining experience that highlights not just the Sanma but also complementary side dishes that tantalize the taste buds.

A Side to Savor

The Agedashi Nasu features lightly battered and fried eggplants drizzled with a flavorful dipping sauce made from premium soy sauce infused with the rich essence of bonito and kombu. This side dish harmonizes beautifully with the grilled Sanma, providing a perfect balance of flavors. On the other hand, the Mini Sukiyaki, filled with a sweet-savory essence, makes for an exciting way to incorporate meat into this seafood delight, enhancing the meal's overall satisfaction.
