Chef Yasukan Ken with 50 years of experience

Fukuji considers it important to handle good ingredients in good condition above all else. This is because the main ingredient of the dish, puffer fish, is served as a simple dish due to its light taste.

Mr. Yasukan Ken, the master of the restaurant, makes full use of the taste of puffer fish with his insight and aging techniques that he has cultivated over 50 years since he was an apprentice, and provides it to you. Currently, 70-90% of the puffer fish distributed on the market is farmed, but the puffer fish used at Fugu Fukuji uses natural white puffer fish caught off the coast of Kyushu, and the flavor of the puffer fish is enhanced using a different level of aging technology.


'Fukuji' Menu Information

At Fukuji, you can choose between a typical puffer fish sashimi course or a classic puffer fish sashimi course. The dishes served with light and savory puffer fish use seasonal ingredients, and we provide carefully prepared dishes so that customers can feel the depth of Japanese cuisine with the taste of the four seasons.


'Sake' to accompany the dishes

The sake that can be tasted inside the restaurant is mainly light and dry sake that does not interfere with the light taste of puffer fish, with the desire to 'enjoy puffer fish deliciously'. Please note that the lineup changes depending on the season because the proprietress selects and provides sake that she can recommend from time to time.
