Toumu Seafood Restaurant Introduction
"Toumu Seafood Restaurant" is located directly in front of the trailhead of Izuki Daibi Rock Mountain. Since its establishment in 1982, it has been passed down to the third generation. The restaurant mainly focuses on hot stir-fried dishes and seafood cuisine, sourcing its main ingredients like fish and lobster from local fishing boats. Initially named "East Coast," the restaurant primarily served frequent truck drivers. However, due to the proliferation of establishments named "East Coast" and the owner's grandfather having served as a leader in the community for four terms, the name was changed to "Toumu Seafood Restaurant," attracting more tourists from the East Coast. The founder of Toumu Seafood Restaurant, Mama Kiniw, not only runs the restaurant but also sells homemade grilled flying fish beside it. The flying fish, caught from the local waters of Izuki, is cleaned and soaked in saltwater before being grilled, releasing a delightful aroma that lures numerous tourists. On busy days, nearly 100 flying fish can be sold in a single day! Mama Kiniw's grilling skills earned her the "Best Popularity Award" at the Indigenous Industry Expo held by the Indigenous Peoples Commission in 2011. Besides the hot stir-fry dishes, the signature item on the menu is the "Mountain Sea Flavor Meal," featuring seven dishes and one soup. It is economical and strongly reflects local characteristics...
