Feature 1 = Luxurious Menu Featuring 'Spring King Crab,' Now in Season with Rich Umami In Nemuro, which boasts the top crab catch in Hokkaido, 'Hairy Crab' caught in spring, the crab season, was mainstream. However, due to recent ocean current changes, plankton, which are food for crabs, have increased, making it a good fishing ground for 'King Crab,' which can adapt to a wide range of water temperatures. The catch has also tripled in the last three years, making it a new spring delicacy in Nemuro. *The listings are examples; others are available at the venue. ★Enjoy 'Spring King Crab' Gourmet Almost half a King Crab from Nemuro is generously served!
