July 13 (Mon) Opening of "Hakata Tempura Kisuimaru Imaizumi Store"! Free "Half-Cooked Egg Tempura" with "Premium Tempura Set" Orders!

Following the overwhelming success of "Hakata Tempura Kisuimaru," a new tempura-dedicated concept by Kisuitei Group—a group known for its Japanese cuisine restaurants, seafood izakayas, and yatai-style alleys featuring Hakata specialties like live squid and fresh fish delivered directly from fish markets—the second location, "Hakata Tempura Kisuimaru Imaizumi Store," will open on July 13, 2026 (Mon), following the first store in Nakasu Kawabata.

Half-Cooked Egg Tempura

As part of the opening celebration, from July 13 (Mon), the opening day, for one week, customers who order the "Premium Tempura Set" at the Imaizumi Store will receive the highly popular "Half-Cooked Egg Tempura" (normally ¥230) completely free of charge (no limit on number of guests). Take this opportunity to savor the luxurious and exclusive "Ultimate Egg Rice" experience—crispy, freshly fried tempura paired with a rich, runny yolk that oozes out the moment you break it, enhanced by the refined dashi soy sauce made with locally cherished Itoshima's "Kano Shoyu" soy sauce, creating a flavor available only now.

In addition, prior to the opening, a pre-opening media tasting event will be held on July 10 (Fri) and July 11 (Sat), 2026, offering media representatives an early chance to experience our signature tempura and all-you-can-eat service. Photography of the interior, equipment, and cooking process will also be permitted. We sincerely invite your attendance.

<Strengths and Craftsmanship of "Hakata Tempura Kisuimaru"> Using carefully selected ingredients and unique cooking methods, skilled artisans fry each dish to order, delivering a light, crisp texture that captures the natural flavors of the ingredients. This is a tempura specialist restaurant where you can enjoy a luxurious, freshly fried experience in a relaxed setting. A standout feature is that customers ordering a set meal enjoy all-you-can-eat Hakata specialties—mentaiko (spicy cod roe), ikamentaiko (spicy squid and cod roe), and takana (mustard greens)—plus unlimited free refills of rice and miso soup.

Surprisingly Light and Crispy—Our Unique Oil and Batter Ratio For the oil, considered the soul of tempura, we use high-quality canola oil that enhances the natural flavors of ingredients. Its neutral taste and excellent oil drainage ensure a clean, non-greasy finish. The batter blends wheat flour with suppressed gluten formation for optimal balance. Additionally, we use the latest molecular cooking device, "Dr. Fry," which controls oil particle size, allowing moisture to escape easily and minimizing oil absorption. This results in an ideal, light, and crispy texture without heaviness.

Artisan-Crafted, Premium Ingredients Driven by the philosophy of "quality ingredients at accessible prices," we rigorously test and select only the finest ingredients. 【Shrimp】 Sourced with shells on and meticulously processed in-house, one by one. 【Large Shrimp】 Only large black tiger shrimp without water retention treatment, highlighting their natural sweetness and firm texture. 【White Fish】 Using skilfish for a fluffy, tender, and refined taste.

Commitment to Perfect Accompaniments and the Blissful Half-Cooked Egg Tempura 【The Perfect Pairing: Half-Cooked Egg Tempura × Dashi Soy Sauce from Itoshima's "Kano Shoyu"】 Our signature "Half-Cooked Egg Tempura" features a rich yolk that flows out luxuriously the moment you pierce it, thanks to the chef's precise frying technique. The recommended Kisuimaru way is to place this premium tempura generously over hot rice cooked with kelp umami, then drizzle with dashi soy sauce specially crafted by "Kano Shoyu" of Itoshima. The moment the savory, crispy batter blends with the rich yolk and warm rice creates the "ultimate tamago kake gohan (egg on rice)." Once you try it, you won't be able to stop—a blissful experience unique to a freshly fried tempura specialist. We also recommend adding a touch of all-you-can-eat mentaiko or ikamentaiko for a luxurious flavor variation. 【Special Tempura Dipping Sauce and Grated Daikon】 Our special tempura sauce features a refined umami from "agodashi" (dried flying fish stock), giving it an authentic Kyushu touch. The daikon radish is coarsely grated using a "oni-oroshi" (coarse grater), preserving its crisp texture and fresh flavor. Enjoy it the Fukuoka way—plentiful grated daikon on the side. 【Yagatame Salt】 A rare salt made by boiling seawater from the Goto Islands over wood fire. Its smooth umami enhances the flavor of tempura. 【Premium Rice】 We use Saga Prefecture's "Yume Shizuku," rated 'Special A' in Reiwa 7, cooked with Hokkaido kelp to maximize the rice's natural deliciousness.

Menu Lineup (Prices include tax) Customers ordering a set meal enjoy all-you-can-eat mentaiko, ikamentaiko, and takana, plus unlimited free refills of rice and miso soup. 【New Addition】 Optional Half-Cooked Egg Tempura Add-On (Rollout Schedule) After the promotional period ends, we offer a cost-effective set option: add the "Half-Cooked Egg Tempura" to any set meal for just ¥160 (tax included).
