The horse mackerel has a plump and chewy texture, and the harmony with the special crispy coating is exquisite. With just one bite, the deliciousness of the horse mackerel spreads throughout your mouth.
The "Ultimate Deep-Fried Horse Mackerel Set Meal" includes two plump pieces of deep-fried horse mackerel, making it a luxurious dish. With homemade tartar sauce, the deliciousness is even more enhanced. The accompanying rice, miso soup, and seasonal pickles, the overall balance of the set meal is excellent.
