Shiroebitei

A specialty restaurant focused on shiroebi (white shrimp) cuisine, located inside Toyama Station’s “Kitokito Market Toya Marche.” Opened in 2015, it serves dishes that bring out the white shrimp’s natural sweetness and texture.

The signature menu item, the “Shiroebi Tempura Rice Bowl,” is generously topped with white shrimp. To preserve the shrimp’s light sweetness and the dish’s visual appeal, the batter and seasoning are kept to a minimum, enhancing the shrimp’s flavor.

They also offer a wide variety of seafood dishes, including the “Buri Tempura Rice Bowl” and “Firefly Squid Tempura Rice Bowl,” and every rice bowl comes with a soup made with shiroebi dashi. Hand-peeled shiroebi sashimi, shipped directly from fishing ports in Toyama Bay, is also a popular choice.

They use 100% Toyama-grown Koshihikari rice, with a focus on local flavors. With direct access from Toyama Station, it’s easy to get to, and a place you’ll want to stop by when visiting Toyama.
