Savor 'Summer in Noto' on a Plate: Seasonal 'Natural Noto Rock Oysters' and Sake-Wine Pairings at Three Experiential Restaurants – COIL, TILE, and barrier

SU-BEE Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture; CEO: Koichi Tabata), a company specializing in planning and operating restaurants, will offer a limited-time premium menu featuring the seasonal 'Natural Noto Rock Oyster' as the star ingredient, along with sake and wine pairings, at its three operated restaurants—COIL, TILE, and barrier—starting Monday, June 15, 2026. This initiative aims to create a compelling reason for visitors to come to Kanazawa during early summer, a period when tourism typically declines, by highlighting the unique appeal of local, seasonal ingredients. It also seeks to support Noto producers who are rebuilding after the 2024 earthquake, through the concept of 'supporting by enjoying delicious food.'

■ Following the winter hit 'Kanibako Crab,' now savoring summer's peak: 'Noto Rock Oyster'

Coil, TILE, and barrier have consistently offered exclusive menus focused on local and seasonal ingredients, enhancing customer satisfaction. Among these, the limited menu featuring 'Kanibako Crab,' a winter delicacy iconic to Kanazawa, became a major success, with many domestic and international guests ordering it, drawn by the appeal of 'something you can only taste at this time and place.' Now, as the long-awaited 'summer edition,' we present the 'Noto Rock Oyster,' currently at its seasonal peak. Unlike winter's 'Magaki' (true oyster), the summer rock oyster is plump, meaty, and full-bodied. We offer all visitors to Kanazawa an exceptional experience—enjoying the essence of this region's current season in a single dish.

■ Supporting the Sea of Noto through Dining: A Dish with a Message of Recovery

The Noto Peninsula, blessed with rich marine resources, suffered significant damage to its oyster farming industry due to the 2024 disaster. The rock oysters served in this initiative are sourced directly from producers in Noto, including Anamizu and Nanao. Each delicious dish enjoyed by our customers becomes a force supporting the recovery of these producers.

'Kanazawa's cuisine, delivered to the world and to local dining tables—and beyond, to Noto.'

SU-BEE will continue to deliver Kanazawa's rich culinary culture to customers at home and abroad, while consistently supporting 'the Sea of Noto' and its producers, the very source of this cuisine.

Menu Details

■ About Noto Rock Oysters

Noto's specialty rock oysters, in season during summer, are characterized by their firm, bouncy texture and rich flavor. Rock oysters are predominantly found along the Sea of Japan coast, while true oysters are farmed more commonly on the Pacific side. While true oysters are cultivated in shallow waters and coastal areas, rock oysters grow slowly in deeper waters, resulting in larger shells and more substantial meat. Oysters are known as 'milk of the sea,' rich in nutrients such as iron, zinc, and vitamin B12. Highly nutritious, oysters are a reliable food source for supplementing essential nutrients often lacking in modern diets.
