Miyagi Prefecture boasts a wealth of spots perfect for strolling around town.
And because of this, it also offers an abundance of convenient, one-hand foods that you can easily enjoy while walking around!
This time, we'll introduce a selection of beloved local one-hand foods!

[Sendai] Fried gourd

Abe Kamaboko Store is the company that coined the name for Sendai's famous sasakamaboko (bamboo leaf-shaped fish cake).
This long-established fish cake shop offers a pop-style one-hand food item called Hyotan-age (gourd-shaped fried fish cake).

Like an American corn dog, it has a crispy exterior and a fluffy interior, with a round fish cake inside.
Many people are captivated by its soft yet springy texture! Its
gourd-like appearance is also cute, making it perfect for enjoying while strolling around town!

[Ishinomaki] Deep-fried Taiyaki

If you are a student in Ishinomaki, you have surely eaten Taiseien's "age taiyaki" on your way home, a taste of youth

My top recommendation is the "Age-Cheese Taiyaki," affectionately known as "Age-Cheese."
The crispier coating compared to regular taiyaki and the sweet cheese cream filling are a perfect match!

Established 40 years ago
Taiseien has continued to operate in the reconstruction Fureai Shopping Arcade despite the earthquake, but has now relocated and reopened!
I hope this restaurant will continue to serve local flavor for a long time to come!

[Kesennuma] Sanma Taiyaki!? Sanma Yaki

Cafe Sanma mia's original product, "7 Sanma Taiyaki!? Sanma Yaki," is an amazing one-handed food that will make you ask, "Is this really a taiyaki!?"

As you can see from its appearance, this sanma-yaki is a taiyaki (fish-shaped pastry) with a long, slender mackerel-shaped coating filled to the batter with plenty of sweet bean paste. I
don't even know what I'm saying myself, but the visual impact is incredible!

This one-handed food is currently a hot topic on the internet!
