By the way, Murasaki Sea Urchin is one of the more famous restaurants specializing in sea urchins in Hokkaido. The main store is in Hakodate. After walking around for two days, I came here when I was ready for dinner (the Life Sapporo store is quite hard to find. It is inside the building. I asked two security guards with a certain review haha 😄)
There were still people waiting for a seat at the door after 8 o'clock. The popularity is OK👌🏻. "Unicorn rice bowl" should be a must-order for every table. I think the taste is ordinary, but it is still quite fresh. In comparison, the raw food such as sashimi in this store is much better than others. "Grilled sea urchin" is really not recommended. It is hard and dry. It is even better than what I have eaten in China.
I have been to Japan many times in the past two years, but I don’t have the freshness of the first five or six years when I first came here. I think "everything is delicious". It may also be related to the food industry I am in contact with now. My taste has become more picky😄.

I used to eat sea urchin rice in China, and I always felt that it had a little bit of fishy smell, but the rice here actually made me taste the taste of the sea. I am not used to eating raw sea urchin, but it is really fresh.
The owner of the store is a sea urchin wholesaler, so the ingredients in the store are guaranteed to be fresh. The signature sea urchin rice has two sizes, and the prices are naturally different. The taste is really good, and the price is reasonable and acceptable.
It's right inside the Hakodate Fish Market. Thanks to Google Maps for helping me find it. Haha. The sea urchin is very fresh and full of the taste of the sea. It's a paradise for sea urchin lovers! I highly recommend the sea urchin roe rice "うに、イクラ丼" (Figure 1). The Japanese name is probably this! A bowl of hot miso soup before dinner drives away the cold of the night. The slightly cold sea urchin and roe are spread on the warm rice. The moment the roe bursts, the freshness rushes into your mouth! [Hehe, I mixed everything together before eating, it's super delicious! ! ! ] Figure 2 is squid wrapped in sea urchin. It was frozen before wrapping. The clerk sister was very considerate to tell me to eat it before thawing. Figure 3 is sashimi, very fresh! I learned Japanese so I had no problem communicating with the clerk. There is also a Chinese menu in the store so don't worry. My parents can point and order even if they don't know Japanese. The clerk is very patient and considerate, and the service is perfect! [Although the food is delicious, don’t order too much and you won’t be able to finish it. Don’t eat too much or you’ll get diarrhea.]
The sea urchin restaurant in the village is very popular, so I thought I must come and try it. I arrived at the Hakodate Morning Market at around 10 o'clock, but it was not open yet. It was 11 o'clock, so I went around again. When I came back at about 11 o'clock, the door was already full of people. I quickly lined up and found that most of them were Shanghainese except for Koreans. . . I went in smoothly after the door opened. The name of the store is just as the name suggests, you have to eat more sea urchin. I ordered sea urchin donburi, salmon and sea urchin double donburi, sea urchin sashimi, and cheese grilled sea urchin. As a sea urchin lover, I can't eat too much sea urchin, and I feel that I can't eat enough! The meals are all large portions, but they still feel very mini when they are served. The amount of sea urchin is a bit small, which is a bit disappointing. It can't be compared with Sawazaki in Otaru, but the taste is just as good! It's so fresh and delicious! The tender and smooth one melts in your mouth, and it's drizzled with wasabi soy sauce, and you feel full of happiness when you eat it! When I came out after eating, there was already a long line outside. Next time I come to Hakodate, I will come here again for lunch and dinner!
Murakami Uchino is a sea urchin restaurant directly operated by a seafood processor. The quality of the sea urchin is trustworthy. The newly caught sea urchins are only processed with salt water to preserve the freshness of the sea urchins to the greatest extent. The signature rice, sea urchin rice bowl, was piled up like a hill when it was served, covered with 80g of raw sea urchin, which was very shocking. The sea urchin in the general gunkan sushi is about 10g, so this bowl of sea urchin rice bowl is equivalent to eight sea urchin sushi! In this comparison, the price of 4320 yen per bowl is still quite cost-effective. The dining environment is clean and tidy, and Chinese menus are provided. Generally, you have to wait for a seat, which makes you even more hungry!
One of the must-eat restaurants in Hakodate, a little north of Hakodate Morning Market, it is easy to find, a small store with tatami and ordinary seats. Waiting is the norm, but before sitting down, the store will kindly remind you whether you can finish your meal before a certain time, so the whole table turnover speed is still very fast. After all, there are only two bowls of rice, and it really won’t take long to eat! Sea urchin rice must be ordered, the large portion is 4320, and it was served. It was smaller than expected, so don’t hesitate, you must order a large portion! The sea urchin is very fresh and sweet, I can eat three bowls of this rice! Other seafood rice also maintains a very fresh feature, thumbs up! The grilled fish is so-so, but cheap! Overall, it is still a restaurant worth eating!
This small izakaya hidden behind the morning market is actually a Michelin restaurant. We went there when it opened at 5pm. Because we didn't make a reservation, the waiter said we could only eat until 6:30pm. It's so popular! We ordered several kinds of sea urchins, which were fresh and refreshing. Come to Hakodate! You must come here!
