Otaru Kamaei's Kamaboko | Otaru Tourism

Home | Otaru Tourism Portal | Kamaei

Kamaei, a popular kamaboko shop in Otaru that has been loved by many Hokkaido residents as well as Otaru residents for many years, was founded in 1905 (Meiji 38). Now boasting a history of over 100 years, the shop operates a total of 12 stores, including four in the city, six in Sapporo, and one at the airport.

In addition to the red and white kamaboko boards that are essential for celebrations, there are also non-fried kamaboko boards such as "uni board" and "yaki board", and there are many Hokkaido local fans who say that "Kamaei's kamaboko is the only choice for celebrations."

At the main factory in Sakaimachi, Otaru, you can observe the skilled craftsmen making kamaboko for free through the glass, and the kamaboko fried on the spot is very popular.

Our top recommendation is the "Bread Roll," which is only available at this store and was developed by the previous president in 1962. The bread roll is made by wrapping minced pollack, minced pork, and onion in an extremely thin piece of bread and deep-frying it, and is a masterpiece of kamaboko cuisine with a crispy texture, just the right amount of saltiness, and the sweetness of the minced fish perfectly matched.
