In autumn, Fukuoka’s spear squid becomes thicker and richer in sweetness and flavor - truly “Yokozuna” class in taste. In this dish, the squid is stir-fried with plenty of vegetables such as cabbage, bean sprouts, and onions. The seasoning is kept simple with just salt and pepper to highlight the natural sweetness of the squid and vegetables. “Because we cook the squid quickly on the griddle, it stays plump and springy,” says Mr. Tamagawa. A whole squid is used, making this hearty dish both satisfying and full of flavor.
The secret to the flavor lies in the batter blended with a special broth and the signature sauce that has been continuously refined since the restaurant’s founding. This celebrated hidden gem in Fukuoka attracts not only locals but also many international visitors.
