鈴波 東武池袋店

Suzunami brings a Nagoya specialty to the B2F food floor of Tobu Department Store Ikebukuro, presenting seafood marinated in mirin lees - kasu-zuke - crafted by the seasoned hands of Yamato-ya, the historic maker of Moriguchi-zuke pickle. The counter selects only seasonal fish at its best, curing it to preserve freshness and bring out a wholly new flavour. Showcases of gindara cod, madai sea bream and kinmedai golden-eye snapper sit ready to take home and grill. The marinated fish is designed to be simply grilled at home, and reviewers note that the gentle, well-balanced cure makes it approachable even for those who are not keen on fish. Gift boxes, which can be assembled to order from your favourite cuts, make it a popular choice for midyear and year-end presents, and the brand ships through its online shop. It suits anyone wanting a properly made Japanese dinner with almost no effort. With its refined showcases and quiet, traditional craft, Suzunami adds a touch of old-established character to the modern department-store basement. The staff will guide you through the seasonal selection, and the results reward a few minutes at the grill. It is a small taste of Nagoya's cured-fish heritage, neatly packaged for Ikebukuro.
