Hatazen - Aomori

I visited Hatazen-san to eat some rice. There were many sakes, and it was fashionable to drink in a bamboo tube. The food was also very good!

I visited on a trip in 2019. I had the local regulars and the shop staff do a great job. I learned about the deliciousness of sake as well as cooking here. It was a good memory of my trip.

I dropped in for a while. The atmosphere of the restaurant was good, and the general and Mr. Itamae were very kind, and it was fun and delicious while explaining the food and talking about small things. No matter which one I ate, it was delicious and more than the price. It seems that it is a little expensive in Aomori, but when you look at the taste and ingredients of the dish, it is more than the price, and I think it is rather cheap. Course meals are recommended for those who want various things. Especially the risotto that comes with the barnacles and abalone grilled with butter for the first time was excellent! Whenever I came to Aomori, it became a shop I definitely wanted to visit.

Visit for dinner. 100 tabelog stores. ⁡ The originally planned yakiniku restaurant couldn't change the reservation time due to the advance flight schedule the day before, so I hurriedly visited here. I want to eat fresh local seafood! So I chose an izakaya instead of a sushi restaurant. ⁡ The interior of the restaurant, which has a private room in addition to the counter and tatami room, is small and has the image of a small restaurant. In addition to tourists, there were several local customers, giving the impression of a shop loved by the locals. ⁡ The menu focuses on seafood dishes using local fish, as well as meat dishes such as Hakkoda beef. The price is a little high for a rural area, probably because of the quality of the ingredients. ⁡ Since this was my first visit on this day, I ordered roughly what I wanted to eat, mainly seafood. ⁡ What surprised me most was the "Fujitsubo Sake Boiled" on the menu. First of all, I was surprised at its size. A huge size that cannot be imagined from the "barnacles" stuck on the rocks. It is about the size of a small sazae and has a dignified personality. ⁡ Then I was surprised at the taste. Have you ever eaten "barnacles"? It was my first experience in my life. To describe the taste in one word, "crab"! This is all lol. If you close your eyes and eat, you will definitely be shocked by the crab-like taste that you will not know. ⁡ Finally, I was surprised at the price. It costs 2,200 yen for 4 servings (3 for 2 connections, so it's actually 3). The edible part is very small compared to the main body, and the image is the size up to the first joint of the thumb. Hmm. Super luxury goods lol ⁡ Well, the word delicacy is appropriate, and it's a dish that is rarely eaten, so it's a good experience. ⁡ However, to be honest, my personal impression throughout is that the price is reasonable and neither good nor bad. Certainly delicious food comes out as it is, but I am not impressed and it is a reasonable line considering the price. Considering the influence of the typhoon and the storm until the day before, the evaluation will rise a little, but after all it is a reasonable level lol! ⁡ Well, it's still cheap considering eating the same food in the city center, but lol! I think it's a place where values ​​are divided. ⁡ PS: As you can see from the photos, I don't really recommend nigiri sushi.

Speaking of Aomori, there is an image of tuna. So, when I was looking for a restaurant where I could get delicious tuna, I found "Hatazen". I made a reservation and visited. First of all, the atmosphere when entering the store is good. Both the general and the staff are very nice and it is worth it. I didn't feel like I was starting. I asked for a course meal, but everything was delicious and I was full. The sake "Ura Hachisen", Anko Nabe and sashimi are excellent. I actually wanted to eat more, but I would like to look forward to it next time. I had soba served at the end of the course, and I was really sorry that I could eat it because of allergies to buckwheat noodles, but instead I had sushi served. Only the word "impressive" can be found here. I'm glad I came to Aomori. Next, I will bring my wife. 2022.3.12

Telephone reservation the day before. The general on the phone was very kind and friendly, and I was looking forward to it from the day before. And since it is highly evaluated, expectations are high. It's a small shop where you can eat and drink calmly. The tatami room is a digging type and the waist is comfortable. All the menus looked delicious and I was at a loss, but I ordered the course. Apart from that, I also ordered a helmet grill. Sake, sashimi, sashimi. All of them were excellent and I got drunk very comfortably. The female staff are also attentive, kind and responsive. The general came to greet me with jokes, and I fell in love with Aomori. The general seems to have improved his cooking skills in Kyoto, and things related to Kyoto are displayed here and there in the store. However, I think he is better at talking than cooking (laughs) Finally, I took a commemorative photo in front of the general and goodwill, promised to come again, and left the store.
