• SANMA SUSHI – $19.50
Sanma Sushi (さんまずし) celebrates a centuries-old tradition from Kishu. Originally made as a preserved rice and fish dish for festivals, New Year, and other gatherings, Sanma Sushi was cherished as a nutritious delicacy, especially in mountain regions where rice was scarce. The fish is carefully prepared, lightly cured in vinegar, and pressed with sushi rice, often enjoyed without soy sauce. Some varieties are even fermented over months to create “narezushi.” Today, this beloved dish continues to be made by skilled artisans, keeping the heritage alive for new generations.
