I was torn between choosing sea urchin without using alum from multiple stores (´･ω･｀). As someone who can only eat sea urchin without alum, I was quite drawn to it, but in the end, I chose this place because they handle not only Hokkaido-produced sea urchin but also Chilean-produced sea urchin. I prefer plastic boxes over wooden ones (lol), and the smile of the staff here was also nice. I purchased the salmon roe and crab bento here. The container is a bit small, so even when you're full, you can finish it. - The vinegared rice is well-researched, with just the right firmness, and the balance of vinegar and salt is just right. - The crab has a sweet taste. - The salmon roe is popping. The seasoning of the salmon roe is also delicious. It made me want to eat the salmon roe from Hakodate Asaichi Kaihiko that I love so much, lol.

There are many different types of fish dishes available, but the taste is quite ordinary. Even in a city near the sea, you can find similar dishes without having to go all the way to Hokkaido. The taste and value are both below average, around 2.5 out of 5. I ordered something that looked delicious as I passed by, but it turned out to be a disappointment.

After purchasing ika meshi in Otaru, I wandered around a bit and decided to buy this bento box - the two-color bowl with sea urchin and egg. When I opened it at home, I noticed that there was a decent amount of sea urchin. I started by eating the sea urchin first, which was good. Then I poured the soy sauce provided and started eating the sea urchin bowl with the egg and rice - it was delicious. The rice was also tasty. The pickled ginger provided was surprisingly delicious, and the green seaweed, which I thought was a vegetable, turned out to be seaweed seasoned with sesame oil and a bit spicy. It was surprisingly tasty. Overall, even though I felt a bit different due to it being Hokkaido sea urchin, I ended up enjoying it. Thank you for the meal.

My partner who loves crab was still craving more crab this season, so we decided to visit the Hokkaido Fair at Mitsukoshi department store and bought the Crab Feast Sushi. It was delicious with plenty of crab, but the crab meat was already opened and I prefer thicker crab meat, so that was a bit disappointing. Thank you for the meal.

I always visit the Hokkaido product exhibition, but I had avoided it for a while after eating a seafood bowl that was not tasty. This time, I decided to buy a seafood bento after a long time. I secured a seat in the eat-in space in advance and lined up at Hokkaido Kobo, which had the longest line of customers. I ate the bento in the eat-in space, and it was filled with fresh seafood on top of sushi rice. I was especially impressed by the sea urchin, which I didn't have high expectations for. It was so delicious that I regretted not ordering a sea urchin bowl. Next time, I think I'll buy a sea urchin bowl.

The bento box from Hokkai Kobo with a variety of toppings such as crab, sea urchin, salmon, negitoro, scallops, shrimp, tamagoyaki, and seaweed is easier to eat than one with a lot of crab, salmon roe, and sea urchin. The size was just right and I was very satisfied.

I went to the depachika in Ginza to look for dinner, with scallops as the main dish. They were offering a limited-time sale of Hokkaido seafood bowls, with over 10 varieties available. I decided to purchase the "Hokkai Premium Bento" for 2,646 yen, which included about 3 types of scallops. I paid with cashless payment and received a free paper bag instead of a plastic one. I brought the bento home while promoting the depachika, and enjoyed it for dinner. The bento included seasoned scallops, crab sticks, 2 raw shrimp, salmon, turban shell, small shrimp, sea urchin, salmon roe, crab legs, and abalone. There were also seaweed and pickled ginger included. Although the amount of rice seemed small, the quality was excellent. I wonder if the rice was from Hokkaido.

The Hokkaido product exhibition always seems to be bustling. There are delicious items like ikura and sea urchin. I chose this bento box with a variety of small portions. The prices are high, but it's worth it to taste Hokkaido's seafood little by little.

I was considering buying a larger bento box at Mitsukoshi for my business trip, but the lady suggested that the smaller one might be better for me. I hesitated, thinking it might not be enough, but then she offered to add shrimp for 150 yen. So I added shrimp to my 1500 yen bento box. I thought it might be small, but it was actually packed quite nicely and I ended up feeling full. Very satisfied! (*ˊ˘ˋ*)｡♪:*°

At the Hokkaido local product exhibition, there were four seafood bento shops to choose from. After much deliberation, I decided to go with the bento from "Hokkaido Koubou" because the sea urchin looked the most beautiful. I bought a variety of bentos for my family as well. When I got home, there was a battle for the bentos. I ended up with the "Three Meal Bento" which includes crab, sea urchin, and salmon roe - a classic Hokkaido combination. Despite the small-looking container, there was actually a good amount of rice packed inside. As someone with a small appetite, I split the bento into two meals for lunch and dinner. I think my favorite is still the salmon roe.

I went to the local gourmet fair at Yokohama Sogo, which is being held until the 19th of this month. I arrived at the seafood bento shop I was looking for. Oh! The limited 30 servings of "luxurious crab bowl" that was advertised was not available. When I asked, they said, "It's still available. We will make it right away." So relieved. The staff carefully double-bagged and tied the bag so that it wouldn't spill. I'm sorry for the trouble. Of course, the seafood was luxurious and delicious, but I was surprised by how delicious the kelp I ate first was. The sesame oil added a nice accent. Even the kelp that seemed to be just for decoration was impeccable. I was completely satisfied and enjoyed the meal. I will definitely buy it again.

This time, I visited the basement of Shinjuku Isetan. I ordered the Three-color Bento for ¥1566 including tax. The salmon roe is small but delicious with a nice popping texture. The sea urchin is slightly firm, not too mushy or fishy, very easy to eat. The crab meat is not too salty and has a good flavor. There is quite a lot of rice, so you will be full after eating it.

The sea urchin and salmon roe bowl had a generous amount of sea urchin, so I expressed my heartfelt gratitude. The sea urchin from Shakotan is usually out of season, so I'm not sure if they use Hokkaido-produced sea urchin, but it was firm and delicious. The salmon roe was not very large, but the seasoning was light and it went well with the sea urchin and vinegared rice. Thank you for the meal.

2022 Hokkaido Exhibition in Hankyu

I searched for a seafood bowl at the Hokkaido Food Fair at Nagoya Mitsukoshi Sakae Store. My husband doesn't eat squid, shrimp, or sea urchin, so I looked for something with a variety of other ingredients. It was a challenge to find a luxurious crab feast or a lot of salmon roe and sea urchin. I found a reasonably priced bento box with a variety of ingredients that included a little sea urchin. It had crab, salmon roe, sea urchin, scallops, tuna toro without green onions, and raw shrimp, so we could enjoy a little of each. I bought it with the sea urchin for me to eat.

I visited Hiroshima Mitsukoshi Autumn Hokkaido Harvest Festival in August 2020, but I was exhausted from the heat and the crowds. The food review rating on Tabelog is 3.06. I had a three-color seafood bowl at a seafood bowl restaurant that cost between 1,600 yen and 4,000 yen. The sea urchin was a pleasant surprise. They treat all the ingredients with the utmost respect. Thank you for the delicious meal.

I visited the Matsuya department store basement floor for an event. I purchased the following item: - Deluxe Ehomaki with Snow Crab: 3240 yen for 1 roll (includes scallops, sweet shrimp, salmon, salmon roe, Chinese kombu, and thick grilled egg). This luxurious thick roll wrapped in snow crab has a satisfying texture. The vinegared rice has a subtle aroma of sesame oil and is delicious. Thank you for the meal. The female staff members were also very pleasant.

I decided to try out the Hokkaido food fair at the Kintetsu Department Store Abeno Harukas Main Store. The main attraction at this shop is definitely crab. They had bento boxes filled with crab, but I felt like I wanted some other ingredients too. However, with my wallet feeling like it's winter all year round, I couldn't afford to be too extravagant. While pondering this, I found a reasonably priced bento box with a variety of ingredients. So, I decided to go with the "Seafood Hamanasu Bento for 1350 yen." I brought it home and opened it up. The lineup included crab, scallops, salmon, sea urchin, and salmon roe. It had a real Hokkaido vibe with these ingredients. I would have been completely satisfied if there were shrimp in it, as I actually prefer shrimp over crab. I enjoyed it with beer and sake. I hope to try a bento with shrimp next time. Since this was part of a special event, I won't give it a rating. Thank you for the meal.
