In the Imazu area, the popular spot for fish lovers, “サカナゴコロ,” has once again rolled out a gorgeous lineup for the year-end and New Year season.
This year, it’s 【torafugu】!
目次
This year’s star is this! Torafugu set
Domestic torafugu for tecchiri hot pot, fried dishes, and more 2,680 yen to 4,580 yen(tax excluded)
Fugu hot pot makes it feel like a special year-end or New Year meal, even at home. The plump meat is great, but the real highlight is the amazing broth. The rice porridge at the end must be irresistible〜

This is last year’s huge batch of torafugu orders. Fried food usually means chicken, but if you surprised everyone with fried torafugu, the kids would probably be amazed〜.
Something festive too! Homemade grilled sea bream
Here’s something you’ll want to prepare for New Year’s in Nishinomiya.
Homemade grilled sea bream 1 fish 3,380 yen
It’s sea bream, which Ebessan loves too! When a whole grilled sea bream like this is placed right on the table, it really brings out the celebratory mood. Looks perfect for gatherings with relatives too〜
For hot pot fans! Buri shabu for 4 people

At the end of the year, all that “cutting things up” can be quietly exhausting…… If it’s prepared like this from the start, all you have to do is make the hot pot and eat! Perfect.
The assorted chef’s-choice sashimi platter is still here too!

A little personality test based on the “seafood” you choose will appear.
Still, welcoming the year-end and New Year season with luxurious fresh fish is the kind of thing you might think about but don’t actually do that often, which is exactly why it feels so satisfying when you do〜.
