It is chosen by many customers every year as a winter treat.

For travelling with someone special.Perfect for anniversaries or as a reward.
This winter, experience the true deliciousness of wild grouper at Matsubayashi.

The charm of wild grouper is above all that. "Body"
It is so fatty that you would never guess it is a white fish, and the moment you put it in your mouth, a refined sweetness spreads softly.

The flesh is finely textured and has a springy yet soft texture.
The more you chew it, the more flavor it releases, and it has a rich yet not cloying taste.

When cooked in a hot pot, it falls apart nicely and the skin is bouncy with the delicious flavor of collagen.
You'll feel the difference from the first bite; this is a masterpiece worthy of being called the king of winter.

◆"Passion for wild grouper"
Wild grouper is caught in small quantities and is a rare, high-class fish that is also known as a "phantom fish."
At Matsubayashi, we carefully select only the finest wild grouper,
It is offered as a winter delicacy.

◆"There are regulars who come every year to catch the grouper."
Many guests at Matsubayashi return to eat grouper in the winter.
The fact that it continues to be chosen by people with discerning taste is the best proof of this.

Fresh fish caught that morning has been passed down for generations off the coast of Arita City, Wakayama Prefecture.
These fish were caught using the traditional fishing method known as "Hakkaku Net Fishing."

Hakkaku Net Fishing is a type of fixed net fishing carried out by fishermen who have a thorough understanding of fish behavior and tidal currents.
The advantage of this method is that it causes little unnecessary stress to the fish and allows them to be caught carefully without damaging their flesh.

They head out to sea every morning at sunrise and deliver the fish caught that day directly to you while still fresh.
Because it arrives from the sea to the inn via the shortest route, the flesh is firm and the flavor is exceptional.

Please enjoy this fish, which embodies the pride of local fishermen and the bounty of Kii Channel.

This facility holds the "auction rights" of the local fishing port,
The president himself personally purchases freshly caught local fish.

Every morning, the president visits the fishing port and uses his many years of experience and keen eye to select the best fish.
Each fish is carefully selected for its freshness, fat content, and excellent meat quality.

Because it is shipped directly without going through the market,
You can enjoy the distinct flavor and freshness not only in sashimi, but also in grilled and boiled dishes.

Please enjoy Matsubayashi Passion's local fish.

The fish purchased at the fishing port are sent directly to the inn.
Our chefs carefully prepare the ingredients on the same day they are purchased, preserving their exceptional freshness.
