Sea urchin fisherman's creations! 3 excellent sea urchin dishes at Shari-cho Cafe & Bar "GVO
When you think of sea urchin dishes, gunkanmaki and uni donburi come to mind. However, sea urchin fishermen, who really know how delicious sea urchin is, are not satisfied with such existing dishes. Wouldn't you like to try the unusual sea urchin dishes prepared by sea urchin fishermen? If so, head to GVO, a café and bar in Shari-cho!
Located along Route 334, overlooking the sea, GVO serves excellent sea urchin dishes at lunch time. Before explaining this and that, let's first take a look at some of the menu items you may be interested in.
Sea Urchin Tomato Cream Pasta (1,350 yen including tax). Sea urchin cream pasta is common, but tomato cream pasta is a rarity! The rich taste of sea urchin and the acidity of the tomatoes are a perfect match, and it is like a new discovery. Comes with soup, salad and bread.
Salted sea urchin keshi rice (1,500 yen including tax). Only the most flavorful sea urchins harvested in June and July are used and combined with sweet salt. In fact, sea urchin and salt go well together, and the extra water is removed to enhance the richness of the dish. In addition to the soup, the dish also comes with fried salmon, which is also the star of the show.
Uni Ankake Donburi (1,550 yen including tax). This menu was invented so that frozen sea urchin can be enjoyed even during the winter months, as fresh sea urchin is only available for a short period of time. You can feel the texture of the sea urchin in the an, which is also an unexpected dish. Served with soup and fried salmon.
Just looking at them makes you want to try them, doesn't it? GVO is known for these original sea urchin dishes, but the location where you can enjoy them is also excellent.
The view from the large windows is of the Sea of Okhotsk. The blue ocean stretches out before you during the day, and at night you can watch the waves shimmering in the moonlight, making for a special experience. In winter, drift ice is said to come very close by. What's more, the wonderful thing is not limited to the food and space. ......
What's more, the owner of GVO, Mr. and Mrs. Aihara, are also very nice and cool! The husband, Shinichi Aihara, is the master of GVO, a sea urchin fisherman, and a guitarist. He works as a sea urchin fisherman from April to August, when the sea urchin fishing season is open, and as a master and guitarist from September to March. Yes, GVO is a cafe and bar for a limited time only.
He is also quite active as a guitarist, for example, providing music for the movie "Shiretoko Adventure" produced by Shari-cho, and releasing CDs, etc. He sometimes holds live shows at GVO. I was attracted by the sea urchin dishes prepared by a sea urchin fisherman, and I found a very comfortable space and a charming couple.
If you are ever in the area, be sure to stop by.
