  • About Kanijennu Kita no Hanare

    This specialty restaurant offers a completely private space where personal chefs prepare and serve live crabs and crab dishes right before your eyes. You can enjoy not only the claws and shells but also rare parts like the abdominal muscles and heart, which can only be savored from live crabs. These can be prepared as sashimi, boiled (rare, medium, well-done), or grilled, using the best cooking method for each part, ensuring you can enjoy the entire crab without waste.

    At Kanijennu Kita no Hanare, you can enjoy not only king crabs and horsehair crabs, which are unique to Hokkaido, but also the seasonal flavors of Hokkaido to the fullest. During the winter season, you can savor a “golden crab,” an exceptionally rare delicacy caught at a rate of only one in several thousand. Pair this with crab saké, made by boiling roasted crab shells, for a unique culinary experience at Kanijennu Kita no Hanare. The crabs we serve are shipped directly from the fishing grounds on the day they are caught, ensuring the same freshness as at the place of origin.

    Regarding this announcement, Yukihiro Terada, CEO of QRAUD, commented: “In an era that demands diversity, we are developing a variety of business models to provide vibrant services that energize people through food. We believe that deliciousness leads to happiness, happiness leads to fun, and that delicious food will energize someone’s tomorrow. The newly opened Kanijennu in Hokkaido continues our tradition of offering luxurious crab dishes as a form of culinary entertainment. We hope that both our Japanese customers visiting Hokkaido and guests from overseas will visit us. The lively dining experience featuring carefully selected crabs from all over Japan will surely become an unforgettable memory of your trip.”
