    Kohachiya

    The sea in Taneichi is lively! The luxurious delicacies of sea urchin and abalone are specialties, and you can eat them fresh. We want people from all over the country to enjoy the ``local privilege'' of being able to eat fresh food when it's in season. I cherish this season. We sell and process seasonal products when they are in season.
