Matsumae Sanshoku Rice Bowls with Glue Plant Miso Soup and Matsumae Pickles -Urasato-

Speaking of Tuna, Oma town in Aomori prefecture is famous in Japan, but the tuna is caughted in Matsumae town locaed in Oma town across Tsugaru strait. Tuna sanshoku (マグロ三色丼 * Sanshoku means three kinds) bowls is appealed to tourists in Matsumae town, and visitors can eat that meal at 3 restaurants. I visited Urasato (浦里) this time. Urasato is a Japanese-style restaurant. An owner was a former sumo wrestler, and the sumo wrestler's stew (Chankonabe) is a noted dish, too. Furthermore, the visitors seem to eat a ramen planned by TV program.

By the way, Matsumae Tuna Sanshoku Rice Bowls are defined as 3 kinds of tuna dishes with glue plant miso soup and matsumae pickles. 3 kinds of dishes are different by each restaurants. "Tempura Rice Bowl", "Grated Yam and Tuna Rice Bowl" and "Salad Rice Bowl" were served at the Urasato. I was interested in the salad rice bowl in particular. Wasabi seemed to be contained and it tasted pungent peppery hot. The taste went well with a liquor and I want to eat it with drinks. The price was JPY 1300.
