Baby Red Seabream Lunch in Wakayama

Baby Red Seabream Lunch in Wakayama

Kate Wu |  14 May 2016
Looking for Japanese food around Wakayama JR Station, a big billboard writing "Baby Sea Bream" on a building caught my eyes. Then I found this restaurant right at the station and gave it a try.

Matoi Sushi in Wakayama 纏壽司和歌山水了軒
Established in 1901, Matoi Sushi is a hundred-year-old business and now located near Wakayama JR Station. I think it's popular among the locals, there is a short queue outside the restaurant with just local people.
纏壽司－和歌山水了軒創業於明治34年（1901年），這百年壽司店現在位於和歌山站附近。我猜這壽司專門店是當地受歡迎的餐廳，中午時間餐廳外面有一條小隊輪候，全部是日本人。

I waited for about half an hour to get a table. The restaurant is very local and there are empty seats and tables but there is only one lady and a couple of chefs servicing the whole restaurant. That's why it took so long to be seated.
等了約半小時入座，其實餐廳是有空位的，但我看到只有一位上了年紀的女士和兩位師傅負責全餐廳的餐飲，所以一切服務需時。

Coming here for the baby red breams, I order the restaurant special: Baby Redbream set. ¥1,850. There is a limited quantity every day.
我來是為了吃小鯛的，當然要吃這份「小鯛雀壽司」套餐，數量限定，每份¥1,850。

Red seabream (or Pagous major) has been praised for its flavor and for its traditional use as an auspicious food in Japan. Baby red breams a famously prepared with salt and vinegar. So they are not raw and quite chewy.
鯛魚在日本一直以來都是比較矜貴的魚，而小鯛最著名的煮法是用鹽和醋醃製，所以不算是魚生，壽司有味道和口感。

There are always some assorted side dish in Japanese cuisine, using some seasonal food. In spring, sakura theme is a must.
日本料理都有其他前菜，通常會採用時令食材，而春天一定有些櫻花點綴。

There are also other generic set meal choices. This is a sashimi rice bowl with tempura udon set. Costs ¥1,500.
餐廳有很多其他選擇，這是魚生飯加天婦羅烏冬套餐。每份 ¥1,500。

This is a pretty good restaurant. The sashimi rice bowl is covered with assorted fresh seafood. Looks good, too.
纏壽司是不錯的餐廳，魚生飯鋪滿新鮮魚生，看起來已經覺得好吃。
