Very Fresh Seafood Rice Bowl with Crunchy Texture -Marutomi Shokudo in Monbetsu-

Marutomi Shokudo (まるとみ食堂) is a popular restaurant in Monbetsu city located in the eastern part of Asahikawa city. Marutomi Watanabe fishery runs it, and there is a fishery store at same building, too. Tasty seafood has high reputation, and it was recommended by my friend.

I visited here around 11:00, it was already full. A waitress said that I can enter if I wait for approximately 20 minutes. I decided to wait. Meanwhile, I sat at a seat for waiting and read a menu at an entrance. Everything looked tasty. I was having trouble deciding "Salmon Roe Rice Bowl" or "Seafood Rice Bowl", but I decided to eat "Seafood Rice Bowl". A night menu looked tasty, too. There were some tables and family customers seem to enjoy. Approximately 20 minutes later, I entered the restarunt and sat at a counter seat at an annex and ordered the seafood rice bowl (海鮮丼). Approximately 10 minutes later, the seafood rice bowl was served. The price was JPY 1,600.

Ingredients were a sweet prawn, surf clam, a scallop, seriola purpurascen, salmon, salmon roe, flying fish roe and etc. Contents of combo were the seafood rice bowl, a bowl of freshwater clam miso soup and a dish of pickled radishes. It looked gorgeous and tasty. I ate the seafood at once. The seafood had crunchy texture and seemed to be very fresh. It was very tasty. By the way, a poster was put on a wall at the restaurant and Ms. Kumiko Takeda took office as a scallop campaign girl in Monbetsu city.
