Behind the Counter at a local Japanese Portside Tuna Restaurant

This is Behind the Counter at a Local Japanese Portside Tuna Restaurant in Misaki Port 2 hours south of Tokyo. It's a maguro tuna speciality shop, Kurobatei, nestled for more than half a century in the heart of a local Japanese fisherman’ town. The shop serves ultra fresh sashimi and their signature maguro dishes. This Japan hidden gem restaurant offers a dining experience with the freshest ingredients, passion-infused local craftsmanship all with a warm family vibe. We even visit the the Misakoi Port fish market which has been the lifeblood of this port city for over a 100 years and designed as a wholesaler market, you’ll rarely see restaurant owners here. But Takuya and his family take exceptional pride in being able to select and server the freshest and highest quality fish available to their customers so you'll find them at the market every morning. The family even participates in the Fish Market Tuna Auction. It’s also, where Takuya’s grandfather made a name for himself as the Number 1 Maguro Fisherman in the industry during his time. It’s an uncommon practice to eat the tuna’s more unconventional parts like the throat and jaw, but here in the Misaki area, it’s a local specialty often eaten in the home, as it’s a the technique that was developed by their local fishermen. Apparently during long voyages at sea, the Japanese Tuna fishermen would enjoy the lesser-known parts that usually don’t make it to the market and would cook it with an international culinary approach with spices gathered from their trips around the world, resulting in their own unique tuna fusion style cuisine.

Paulo, can you do a follow-up video on the daughter in a year? There were so many interesting people in this video, but the daughter certainly captured our hearts. I'm rooting for her! I wanted to give her a big hug and encourage her to keep it up. The learning curve has to be steep in a specialized business like tuna bidding, even if it's a family business. Can't imagine the pressure she's feeling, and what things she will discover in a years time. What a brave woman to share her story.

[@Adrian-zw6sc]

The follow-up needs more than a single year's time, especially considering she's only in her early 20s, and it was stated in the video that it may take 10 yrs plus to become a more seasoned experienced pro. I really like this young gal, but give her the time and space she needs to grow and evolve.

[@Maria-ok9xv]

I really appreciate you also showing the inner dynamics and sometimes arguments that can occur in family businesses, and the willingness of the daughter to put forth some of her emotions like crying after not getting the fish she wanted to show her dad - makes it real and raw and understandable. rooting for her!! it's also refreshing to see a daughter also invested in taking over a family business since we usually see sons :)

I love how the father is supportive of both of his children--encouraging the daughter to work on bidding for tuna (can only imagine what it can be like competing with all of the veterans) and seeing the son develop his method of taking the tuna head apart and picking fish. Really like how both of them have their strengths (and varied interests) and combine them in making the menu as well.

This family is lovely. To be taught and supported by a parent is wonderful. The third tuna sounds like it was special. So, I would expect the bidding to be aggressive.

Learning to carve well and with little to no waste shows excellent skill.
