[Ota Market] Savoring the season at Sanyo Shokudo. Yui-sourced "raw sakura shrimp" and the must-have jumbo fried shrimp.

One of my favorite spots in Ota Market, "Sanyo Shokudo".
It is a regular weekend lunch spot that I visit often enough to keep coming back.

This time, I was able to fully enjoy the seasonal flavors unique to this time of year.

An extensive menu that makes you want to visit regularly

The appeal of Sanyo Shokudo is, above all, its extensive menu.

From the usual "can't go wrong" classic set meals to seasonal limited-time menus that make the most of the current harvest, there is always a sense of excitement about "what should I eat today?" whenever I visit. I never get tired of it, no matter how often I go.

Today's star: "Pure raw sakura shrimp" from Yui

This time, I chose the "Yui-sourced pure raw sakura shrimp bowl and jumbo fried shrimp set".

The moment it was brought to the table, I was captivated by the translucent pink color of the raw sakura shrimp.
With the first bite, the firm texture unique to raw shrimp and the elegant sweetness that spreads the more you chew fill your mouth.
Being able to taste the guaranteed quality of Yui, Shizuoka, right here at Ota Market is the height of luxury.

Consistent quality, crispy jumbo fried shrimp

And, the "jumbo fried shrimp" that comes with the set is also a must.

It feels heavy when held with chopsticks, and the breading is surprisingly crispy.
The shrimp inside is plump and resilient, making it very satisfying.
Coating it in plenty of tartar sauce and taking a big bite, no words are needed.

A market luxury lunch that is worth every penny

The price for the set is 1,700 yen.
It is a bit rich for lunch, but considering the freshness, volume, and the joy of choosing, it is a satisfying experience that makes me think "I'm glad I came" every time.
It is great to settle for the classic flavors, and it is also great to indulge in seasonal items like I did this time.
I am already looking forward to my next visit to see what kind of menu I will encounter next.
