ChefKoji Kimura - The Third Generation Preserving the Tradition of a Long-Established Business with Traditional Skills
Born in Osaka Prefecture. Established in 1929, "Takoyasu" has been passed down through three generations, starting with my grandfather and father, leading me naturally into the culinary world. After graduating from high school, I worked for about a year and a half as an apprentice at a fugu wholesale dealer and restaurant in Shimonoseki, followed by three and a half years of honing my skills at the long-established kaiseki restaurant "Edobori Yamaguchi" in Osaka. Mr. Kimura values the courage to maintain traditions rather than seeking to change things. The third-generation owner welcomes guests to "Takoyasu," where the family recipe for fugu dishes and the warm hospitality of the past are firmly passed down.
Food "The Spirit of Hospitality Embedded in the Beginning 'Teppi' and the Ending 'Dessert'"
At "Takoan," you can enjoy a variety of dishes made with natural tiger pufferfish from the East China Sea, such as sashimi (tessa) and hot pot (techiri), as well as grilled pufferfish roe. The restaurant takes pride in its attention to detail, from the appetizers to the desserts. The initial appetizer, "teppi," has been passed down since the establishment's founding; it features pufferfish skin marinated in a family recipe broth, making it a perfect match for sake. The final dessert, melon, offers a refined sweetness that is pleasantly ripe. The owner's desire for customers to enjoy delicious food from start to finish is deeply felt in every bite.

Stepping into "Takoyasu," which retains the charm of its founding in the 4th year of the Showa era, one is greeted by a space that, while preserving the echoes and textures of history, is comfortably arranged. All the prepared rooms are private, adorned with hanging scrolls, antiques, and seasonal flowers, creating an atmosphere suitable for enjoying fugu, which is also considered a good luck charm. The unwavering hospitality that has remained unchanged over the years, along with the corridors leading to the guest rooms and the view of the courtyard, evoke a deep appreciation for the character of the building that has lived alongside generations of owners.
A renowned fugu restaurant that welcomes guests just as it did when it was founded in 1929. Experience the full allure of natural tiger pufferfish.
"Yunagi Bridge Takoan" features a noren (fabric curtain) adorned with a pufferfish, swaying at its entrance. This long-established restaurant has been serving pufferfish dishes since its founding in 1...929, maintaining its original charm.
The menu offers a course featuring natural tiger pufferfish sourced from the East China Sea, allowing guests to fully appreciate the delicacies of this fish. The size of the pufferfish can vary by season, sometimes exceeding 6 kilograms, so there is no fixed recipe; instead, dishes are prepared using only the "tradition and techniques" passed down from the founder.
With a beautifully structured course that starts and ends perfectly, you can truly feel the essence of this historic establishment.
