Savor all of the above with specially imported sakes and highballs from Tokushima Prefecture, ranging from refreshing and easy-to-drink Ume Sparkling sake to smooth and rich Junmai Daiginjo sake, starting from $9.90. 

The Matsuura Ume Sparkling Sake (U.P. $13.90) brings the fresh fruit flavor of Oshuku plums from Tokushima, with a gentle effervescence that brightens the palate. Tokushima Prefecture is famous for its zesty and aromatic sudachi limes. Savor it in both the Sudachi Honey Sake (U.P. $15.90) which harmonizes the sweetness of honey, the yuzu-like tang of sudachi lime, and the umami of sake for a thirst-quencher that pairs well with salty dishes or the BiBi Sudachi Highball with zero sugar and 5% alcohol. Enjoy this limited-time promotion at just $4 per highball with every ramen or abura soba ordered exclusively available at RAMEN KIOU only. Don’t miss the Yuzu Hime and Yamamomo Hime (U.P. $12.90 each) which are premium fruit-infused shochus with 15% ABV for a well-structured sip.

Fans of balanced sake will appreciate the Narutotai “Onto the Table” Junmai Daiginjo (U.P. $16.90) which conveys a smooth, rich umami of rice. It is best served at 5℃ to enjoy its daiginjo complexity with no additives. Another pure rice sake, aromatic ginjo style, is the Junmai Ginjo Awatenshi (U.P. $14.90), which offers a balance of umami, sweetness, and acidity. 

 



Hairy and snow crabs @ Kuriya Japanese Market’s Winter Fair (16 Nov 2022 – 28 Feb 2023)

Winter marks the start of crab season in Japan. Snow crabs (Zuwaigani) are loved for their tender, snowy white meat with sweet and savory umami flavor. Smaller but no less delicious are Hokkaido hairy crabs (Kegani) which are famous for their firm meat and exceptional sweetness.

At the Winter Fair, Kuriya Japanese Market is bringing in Hokkaido hairy crab ($55/pc) which can be enjoyed cold or warm. Simply thaw (from the frozen condition) or steam them to enjoy them. Its creamy roe packs a rich umami punch and is best enjoyed with a zesty ponzu sauce.

Known as the king of winter delights, Zuwaigani (snow crab) will be available as ready-to-eat meals in three different offerings. The indulgent Zuwaigani Kaisen Box ($16.80) is a medley of snow crab, scallops, salmon, yellowtail, tuna, egg cubes, and salmon roe on rice. The Zuwaigani Maru ($8.80) tempts the appetite with a snow crab sushi roll, with seared mentai mayonnaise and topped with salmon roe. The Zuwaigani Hana Sushi ($10.80) features chunks of snow crab and salmon roe on a tamagoyaki (egg) sushi roll.

Ready-to-eat Zuwaigani legs (frozen, $19.80/250g) can be enjoyed as part of your festive meals. They can simply be defrosted, cooked (steamed or grilled), and enjoyed for their sweetness with ponzu sauce; or added to a hotpot.
