Kuroshio Kobo
黒潮工房 （Kuroshiokobo）
An authentic bonito searing experience
Kuroshio Kobo is an restaurant that offers a line up of all the local delicacies of the Nakatosa region including horse mackerel or round herring sashimi, charcoal grilled dried fish of the season and the famous, katsuo no tataki (seared bonito).
Spring bonito traveling north on the Kuroshio current is slightly sweeter, while autumn bonito caught further south is fattier and more tender. The secret to the light and delicate texture of Kuroshio Kobo’s katsuo no tataki comes from using 100% fresh bonito and straw for the searing process. In order to preserve local culinary traditions and knowledge Kuroshio Kobo has workshops and live demonstrations of katsuo no tataki.
Experts guide the workshops for bonito searing so everyone is encouraged to participate, for the ambitious few, select the intermediate workshop and learn how to filet an entire bonito before searing it to mouth-watering perfection.
