[Itoshima Oyster Hut] Everything is delicious! A popular restaurant with a wide variety of menu items and a great kids' space

Hello. This is Chihi Log, a casual website that provides information about Fukuoka, with a focus on gourmet food.

This time, we will introduce you to an oyster hut located in the Funakoshi area of Itoshima.

Enjoy freshly caught seafood! "Kenchan Kaki" oyster hut run by a fisherman (Shima Funakoshi, Itoshima City)

During this season, seven oyster huts are open at Funakoshi Fishing Port, including the one we will introduce this time, "Kenchan Oysters." Surrounded by the lush blue sea, you can enjoy oysters and other seafood caught there.

There is a shared free parking lot that can accommodate 200 cars, so it is convenient to go by car. It is about an 8-minute walk from Showa Bus Stop Funakoshi, so you can get there even if you don't have a car.

The interior of the restaurant is spacious and seems easy to use for both small and large groups.

There is also a well-equipped kids' space so that "small children can feel safe" and "mothers who are always working hard raising their children can enjoy their meal at their own pace."

The ocean-facing terrace was equipped with a slide and swings handmade by the owner.

There were also menu items that small children would enjoy, such as French fries, sausages, and desserts.

"Kenchan Kaki" has been open for 12 years. The warm-hearted owner, Kazuo, is a fisherman.

I work as a fisherman at Funakoshi Fishing Port for half the year, and run the shop for the other half.

"I never thought I'd open a restaurant, but it makes me happy to see customers enjoying the food and leaving with a smile on their face..." says the owner, who has created a wide variety of dishes.

Extremely fresh! Everything on the menu is delicious

The menu includes seafood carefully selected by the owner, who has been a fisherman for many years, as well as seafood he has caught himself, and all of them are absolutely delicious!

Let me introduce the menu we ordered. *Gas fee of 300 yen per table will be charged separately.

oyster

A full serving of oysters costs 1,200 yen, and a half serving costs 600 yen (the same price is applied at stores run by fishermen belonging to the Itoshima Fisheries Association).

There were also large sized "1 large oyster serving" (1,500 yen) and "Rock oysters" (1,500 yen).

There is also a "Great Value 3,000 Yen Set" that includes 6-7 oysters, 2 scallops, 2 kuruma shrimp, 2 clams, and 2 turban shells. This is recommended for those who want to order some grilled food!

Top quality rock oysters

The "Superb Rock Oysters" (2 pieces for 2,500 yen) are large rock oysters caught at Funakoshi Fishing Port and topped with high-quality sea urchin and salmon roe sourced from Nagahama Fishing Port.

The milky flavor of the rock oysters spreads throughout your mouth, accented with the flavors of sea urchin and salmon roe! It was a luxurious taste.

Bowl of rice topped with sashimi

"Seafood bowl" (1,500 yen) topped with salmon, tuna, yellowtail, flathead, salmon roe, and more.

With just this one bowl, I was able to enjoy a variety of seafood.

Tiger prawn

The extremely fresh "Kuruma shrimp" (450 yen each) were so tasty that I was surprised they were still moving even when skewered!

Being able to eat such superbly fresh oysters is a luxury that only an oyster hut can offer. It was delicious.

Scallops

The price of scallops varies depending on the size (medium 500 yen, large 600 yen, extra large 700 yen, extra large 800 yen).

The ingredients are sourced directly from markets in Hokkaido, so you can enjoy the high-quality flavors.

Turban shell

The "Sazae" (1 serving costs 1,200 yen) contains 4 to 5 "regular-sized" turban shells.

If you want the "larger size," they will give you 2-3 large pieces for the same price!

Clams

The size and quantity of "clams" (650 yen) varies depending on what is purchased.

The meat is thick and the more you chew it, the more delicious it becomes!

Oyster and yam hot plate

The fluffy "Oyster and Yam Teppan" (650 yen) was served piping hot.

The dough is flavored with mountain yam and oyster broth, and there are plenty of oysters inside! I was delighted with the mild, delicious flavor.

Conger eel in sweet and sour sauce

The "Conger eel in sweet and sour sauce" (600 yen) is made using conger eels caught by the owner in a net fishing line.

It was a truly impressive dish, with the fluffy and mild flavour of the conger eel clearly having been carefully prepared and cooked.

Habanero inner

If you like spicy food, you should definitely order the "Habañero Inner" (300 yen per stick).

It has a spicy taste and an irresistible crispy texture!

Grilled squid in foil

"Grilled squid wrapped in foil" (650 yen).

It had quite a strong flavor, but was only seasoned with salt and pepper! It was packed with the deliciousness of the flying squid.

Freshly squeezed lemon sour

You can bring your own drinks, but we recommend ordering the "Freshly squeezed lemon sour" (600 yen).

It comes with a whole lemon cut in half, so you can have fun squeezing it yourself and drinking it. Everyone can have fun!
