On September 3rd, the temperature dropped and it felt like autumn, but the theme was Miyagi’s autumn delicacy, Harako Meshi. In recent years, the autumn salmon catch has been poor across the country, but restaurants in Miyagi Prefecture have started offering Harako Meshi. Harako Meshi is a local dish that Miyagi is proud of. It is made by seasoning rice with salmon broth and topping it with a generous amount of salmon fillet and salmon roe. The season has come again this year. Yotei Hamaya is located in Asuto Nagamachi, Taihaku Ward, Sendai City. Many people come every day to try the fresh seafood that is bought at the market every morning. “We are sorry to keep you waiting. The Harako Meshi set meal is popular at this time of year.” Orders came in immediately after opening on the 3rd. Eatery: “It was delicious. I was looking forward to it.” “The salmon is tender and the salmon roe is sweet. I come here every year when it’s time for Harako Meshi.” This restaurant has been offering Harako Meshi since August 31. Here we go. Orders have reportedly been pouring in since the first day. Although he is happy, the chef is worried about the “poor fall salmon catch” that has become severe in the past few years. Yuta Tsuboi, executive chef of Ryotei Hamaya, says, “We haven’t received any fish from the prefecture this year, so we can’t say anything about it, but I heard that the number of fish that will arrive will be smaller.” According to Miyagi Prefecture, the fish will be caught within the prefecture. The number of fall salmon has been decreasing every year, and last year there were only 4,600 salmon, a sharp decline of less than 1% from 2013, 10 years ago. While the exact reason for the sharp decline is unknown, rising sea temperatures due to global warming are thought to be a factor. What the store lacks in local produce, it makes up for with Hokkaido products. Yuta Tsuboi, chef at Ryotei Hamaya: “This is also Hokkaido salmon. Currently, most of the salmon we get comes from Hokkaido, and I think we’ll soon be getting more salmon from the prefecture. It’s a local specialty from Miyagi, so it changes every year. According to Miyagi Prefecture, the number of salmon arriving this fall will be 10,000, about the same as last year, and the outlook is grim.”
