The Pride of Toyama Bay: Authentic Boiled Firefly Squid
Discover the extraordinary flavor of Hotaru-Ika (Firefly Squid), hand-picked from the pristine waters of Toyama Bay, Japan. Known as the "Mystery of the Sea," Toyama’s firefly squid are famous for being larger, plumper, and more flavorful than those from any other region.
Our squid are expertly boiled to perfection immediately after being caught, locking in their natural sweetness and rich, creamy umami.
Why Toyama Bay Firefly Squid?
  • Superior Plumpness: Harvested at their peak, these squid are known for their thick, succulent bodies and rich "miso" (liver) inside.

Dynamic Pricing & Deposit Policy

  • Weight Variation: Our specialty items, such as fresh seafood and Wagyu beef, inherently vary in weight.
  • Pre-order Deposit: To accommodate these variations, prices are initially set based on the maximum expected weight. A 20% deposit is charged at the time of your pre-order to secure your purchase.
  • Final Capture & Remaining Balance: Once the actual weight is confirmed after sourcing and shipping from Japan, we will capture the exact amount for the final, correct price.
