Matsuba Crab (Kinosaki Onsen)
When you crack open the freshly boiled shell, the white meat falls away delicately. As it enters your mouth, the aroma of the sea and a refined sweetness gently spread across your palate. When dipped in a hot pot, it blooms like a flower; when grilled, its savory fragrance intensifies—this is truly the protagonist of winter in Kinosaki. Matsuba Crab refers to the male snow crab caught in the Sea of Japan. It is said to have earned its name because its spread legs resemble pine needles. The finest catches from ports such as Tsuiyama are marked with colorful tags representing their origin, conveying both their high quality and the port where they were landed. Imagine indulging in sweet crab after a soak in a steaming hot spring inn. Savor a luxurious full course—Kanisuki, grilled crab, and crab sashimi—that is permitted only during the winter season to your heart's content.
