An Exciting New Taste at Dodger Stadium
Japanese cuisine is once again making waves in the US with the latest offering from Tsukiji Gindaco, a popular takoyaki chain operated by Hotland Holdings. On September 8, 2025, Gindaco will launch its third collaboration with the Los Angeles Dodgers, introducing the
Spicy Caviar - Mentaiko Sauce with Sudachi. This special takoyaki will be available in Gindaco stores across Japan (excluding certain event venues, racecourses, and stadiums) for a limited time.
This innovative product centers around
mentaiko, a classic Japanese ingredient known for its umami flavor, blended with the refreshing aroma of
sudachi, a citrus fruit. The combination promises a delightful exploration of taste and texture, perfectly aligning with the growing popularity of mentaiko as
Spicy Caviar in the U.S. When enjoyed warm, and garnished with fresh sudachi juice, the dish offers a zesty and refreshing culinary experience.
What Makes Spicy Caviar Special?
The
Spicy Caviar - Mentaiko Sauce with Sudachi features hot takoyaki drizzled with a sweet soy sauce made using bonito and kombu dashi, topped with a generous serving of
katsuobushi flakes from mackerel and bonito. Additionally, crunchy
kujo negi and regular negi offer a varied textural contrast, enhancing the overall experience. The special mentaiko sauce, sprinkled with toasted sesame seeds and the finishing touch of freshly squeezed sudachi juice, elevates the dish to new heights. Diners are encouraged to squeeze the sudachi for an extra burst of flavor, creating a harmonious blend of umami, spice, and citrus with every bite.
As the weather warms, this refreshing takoyaki will surely be a favorite among patrons, making it a must-try item on your next visit.
