The meat is fresh and juicy.
The soup on the side is delicious too.
Prices are really reasonable.

Uozu Aquarium
A municipal aquarium in Uozu City, Toyama Prefecture, founded in 1913. It is known as the oldest existing aquarium in Japan. Inside, the exhibits focus on creatures that live in the rivers and seas of Toyama Prefecture, with more than 10,000 animals from Approx. 330 species on display. The highlight is the 4-meter-deep large Toyama Bay tank, where you can watch schools of large fish from Toyama Bay, including yellowtail and longtooth grouper, swimming together.
You can tell right away that this place has some age to it. The facilities aren’t flashy, but it was surprisingly enjoyable to look around.
It focuses on marine life from Toyama Bay, and there were lots of fish you don’t usually see at bigger aquariums. The explanations were also really thoughtfully written, so you end up learning a lot as you go. -
Kumagai Residence
The residence of the Kumagai family, a merchant family deeply involved in the operation of the Iwami Ginzan Silver Mine. This valuable example of traditional residential architecture was built in 1801 and is designated as an Important Cultural Property of Japan. It is also one of the component assets of the UNESCO World Heritage Site 'Iwami Ginzan Silver Mine and its Cultural Landscape.'
A well-preserved traditional old residence where you can get a glimpse of what life was like in a Japanese home in the past. The building structure, garden, and wooden details have all been kept in great condition. It's quiet and not crowded, so it's a nice place to take your time exploring.
It's not very large overall, but it has a real sense of history. Worth stopping by if you're in the area. -
Mt. Fuji World Heritage Centre
Mt. Fuji was registered as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site in 2013. Opened in 2017, this facility-known for its striking architecture-lets you learn more about Mt. Fuji, long a symbol of Japan for its one-of-a-kind beauty.
The architecture itself is super eye-catching—you can tell right away this is a place to check out Mt. Fuji. The exterior is great for photos.
Inside, it’s mostly about Mt. Fuji’s history and culture, and why it was listed as a World Heritage site, not just a spot to look at the scenery. The exhibits are thoughtfully designed, and it’s better if you take your time.
You can also see Mt. Fuji from the rooftop. If the weather’s good, it really makes the visit.
Overall it’s more on the educational side, perfect for anyone who wants to learn more about Mt. Fuji.
