Please drop in on the festival day.
In Ogaki, it was common to eat crucian carp in a New year and a festival. Ogaki is the land without sea, so river fish is valuable as a protein source. 川貞 ”Kawatei” was founded as a river fish specialty shop in 1913. With the transition of the era after that, river fish was shifted to eel and eel has been loved for over 100 years.

The main restaurant is for
taking away, and the east restaurant is for dining in the shop.
“Because Ogaki had plenty
of flood damage, in the old days it got soaked in the shop,and there was also a swimming swamp.”
Mr. Furukawa, 3rd restaurant owner who is friendly and easy to speak.
“Because Ogaki had plenty of flood damage, in the old days it got soaked in the shop,and there was also a swimming swamp.”
“Although now it is deserted, but when the spinning industry was popular at once, female workmen shopped at Sunday, even if it was not a festival day, the front of the station is crowded.”
He talked nostalgically about the old days of shops and towns.
There are various menu such as eel bowl, Hitsumabushi, set meals, etc. These are definitely excellent meals. Exquisite spicy smell make us hungry.
Because Ogaki is located in the center just separating the east and west of Japan, the east culture and the west culture mix in various scenes. Eel is known for its different recipes in the east and west, but both cultures can be seen in Ogaki. Kawada’s way of grilling the eel is the west style. Kawatei grills the eel without steaming. On the other hand, how to rip is a the east style.
Besides Miso Ogaki cracker, the series of “Tamahodo” which name is the brand name at the time of its founding is also popular. As opposed to Ogaki crackers which are hard-baked miso sauce, recommend it for snacks to children as well!
In addition to sesame seeds, peanuts, pumpkins, etc., recently, we have joined the unusual flavor such as mint, coconut. Seasonal limited items are also released depending on the season.
Beyond the era, Tanakaya Senbei is pleased with a wide range of generations.
Ogaki Souvenir and, as a tea dealer at home, please enjoy it.
A wonderful Japanese garden that you can watch from the spacious restaurant. The change of the scenery according to the season is also fun.
