The souvenires in Towadako
What is"Himemasu"?Do you know?
"Himemasu"are freshwater salmon and they are grown in TOWADAKO.
And it is most famous specialty in TOWADAKO.
There are many other specialties in TOWADAKO.(WAKASAGI fish,wild plants,etc)
Our local gifts and local cuisine shops opend in 1931.
MORITA is open at a place called YASUMIYA in lakeside of TOWADAKO.
In Lake Towada, in addition to the large influx of sediment due to heavy rain the year before last, last year's unbelievably high temperatures persisted, resulting in a poor catch of Hime-masu fish. Altho Hime-masumasu fishing for this year will begin on April 21,2024, there is a high possibility of poor Hime-masu catches. Therefore, there may be many days when we cannot offer dishes made with Hime-masu(sashimi, salt-grilled, tempura). Furthermore, due to the inability to harvest Hime-masu roe, the "Hime-masu Oyako mesi" is on indefinite hiatus.
