The Fish, Seafood restaurant in Futtsu, Japan
The Fish is a seafood restaurant in Futtsu, a coastal town on Tokyo Bay in Japan, serving fresh catches from local waters every day. Both traditional and contemporary Japanese preparations are on the menu, which changes according to what is in season.
Futtsu has been a fishing and seafood processing centre on Tokyo Bay for centuries, long before the city around it grew. This restaurant carries on a practice that has been part of the local identity for generations.
In Futtsu, fresh fish is not a treat but a daily staple, and this place reflects that directly. The dishes are kept simple so the flavour of the catch takes centre stage.
The restaurant sits in a central part of Futtsu and is easy to find on foot or by car. A lunchtime visit is a good idea since the daily catch tends to be at its freshest earlier in the day.
Guests can pick the catch of the day from a display near the kitchen and ask for it to be cooked in a specific way. This means that two visits on different days can result in completely different meals depending on what came in from the sea.
