Ise Spiny Lobster
With a bright red shell and magnificent antennae, taking a bite reveals a bouncy elasticity and a rich sweetness that spreads throughout your mouth. It is a dish truly worthy of being called the king of the sea. Ise Spiny Lobsters grow in the waters of the Shima Peninsula, where warm and cold currents meet. Mie Prefecture maintains stable catches and boasts one of the highest fishing volumes in the country. A notable feature is that it implements stricter closed fishing seasons than other prefectures to protect the spawning period. Due to its long antennae and curved body, it has been cherished since ancient times as a symbol of good fortune for celebrating longevity. It is offered as a sacred food offering (Shinsen) at the Ise Grand Shrine and is an essential element of New Year decorations. It is a seasonal delicacy that you should definitely taste during its peak season from autumn to winter.
