Kaisen-don Wara (Wajima Kahoku)
The popular seafood rice bowl restaurant from Wajima's morning market, devastated by the January 1, 2024 Noto Peninsula earthquake, relocated to Kahoku City. Fresh seafood landed that morning at Noto ports is served in a generous bowl for 1,900 yen. Sells out daily. Featured on TV 'Kaere Monday' and Ishikawa TV. Fish is prepared in front of customers after ordering.
Since relocating in July 2024, sells out daily with constant lines. Featured on TV (news reports, not PR). Small counter-only restaurant with daily queues. 'Noto flavors available here.' 'Can't believe this volume for 1,900 yen.' Many Instagram posts (@warawajima). Wajima regulars moved to tears upon finding their beloved restaurant at the new location.
