About Wing Fruit Tower

The signature dish is "Grilled Mackerel Soba" and other local specialties.


Details

Located on the Hokuriku Highway, established during the Edo period to connect the Kinki region and Hokuriku, this local cuisine restaurant is situated within "Kurokabe Square," a popular spot in Nagahama known for its historic streetscape. "Tsubukaro" is also a renovated merchant building that is over 200 years old. The interior features elegant spaces, including a tea room that extends into the corridor, making it worthwhile just to stroll around and take a look. The signature dish is the famous grilled mackerel soba from Nagahama. In ancient times, the Hokuriku region, where Nagahama is located, had a custom called "Satsuki Mimai," where parents would send grilled mackerel to the families of their married daughters during the busy farming season. The "grilled mackerel soba" is a simple dish that combines grilled mackerel with soba noodles cooked together. The sweet, salty, and savory flavor of the grilled mackerel pairs excellently with the soba noodles that absorb the broth, making this traditional local dish from Nagahama worth trying. There is also a set meal that includes grilled mackerel sushi, which can be ordered according to personal preference. Additionally, there are various local delicacies such as Omi beef teppanyaki, Biwa Lake sweetfish sushi, red konjac dengaku, and winter-exclusive duck dishes. The local sake that pairs well with these dishes is also worth tasting.
