Special Treat for Setsubun at Tempura Makino
Tempura Makino, renowned for its exquisite tempura, is celebrating this year's Setsubun by introducing a special Temaki sushi featuring authentic tempura. Available exclusively at three locations—Umeda, Sakai Higashi Eki Mae, and Tenjinbashi 4-chome—this delightful offering allows customers to enjoy exceptional tempura in a playful and traditional way.
On February 3rd, 2026, Tempura Makino will unveil their specially crafted Temaki sushi, aptly named 'Ehomaki'. This limited-time sushi combines the traditional Japanese Setsubun celebration with the chef's perfected tempura. The introduction of this enticing dish comes on the heels of the immense success of their Umeda location's 'Tempura Omusubi', which has been selling over 800 pieces daily since its launch on November 25th.
The Ehomaki will be priced reasonably, starting from 600 yen, catering to both first-timers and loyal fans of Tempura Makino. Every Ehomaki features a delightful assortment of tempura, thick omelet, and tar tar sauce, all lovingly wrapped in the fresh, flavor-packed rice—either soy-sauce flavored or refreshing red shiso rice exclusive to the Umeda location.
Unique Recipe and Flavor Profile
The Ehomaki consists of six varieties: three types with soy-sauce flavored rice and three with the unique red shiso rice, bringing a refreshing citrus note to the dish. Each roll is crafted with an array of ingredients, including crispy tempura and seasoned vegetables, ensuring that customers experience a satisfying blend of textures and flavors with each bite.
Tempura Makino prides itself on freshly fried tempura, cooked to order for optimal taste and quality. The tempura is prepared using a special blend of flour, which ensures a light and crispy texture that perfectly complements the rich flavors of each ingredient. Customers will enjoy a gourmet experience where their meal unfolds in the vibrant ambiance of the restaurant, making eating at Tempura Makino not just about the food but about the entire experience.
Taste of Freshness and Seasonal Ingredients
The essence of Tempura Makino lies in its commitment to seasonal ingredients, showcasing the culinary bounty from land and sea. Each ingredient is highlighted to bring out its natural flavors, enhancing the experience with their signature dipping sauce designed to augment the unique taste of seasonal tempura. The dishes promise not just deliciousness but a celebration of the seasons through fresh ingredients.
Moreover, the atmosphere of each location is designed for enjoyment. As you step inside, you are welcomed into a beautifully crafted space that merges traditional Japanese aesthetics with modern design. Diners can watch skilled chefs at work through an open kitchen, experiencing the sounds and smells of frying tempura firsthand, adding to the immersive dining experience.
Tempura Makino also strives to enrich your meal beyond just tempura by offering unlimited servings of carefully selected domestic rice, enhancing the overall dining experience. With a delicious house-made yuzu daikon and squid salted delicacies available at each table, guests can choose to enjoy these as sides or palate cleansers alongside their tempura.
