Yoshikawa City prospered as a distribution center on the river during the Edo period. It was a culture that lived in harmony with the river, and from there, the culture of river fish cuisine was born. The city’s catfish cuisine became so famous that it is said, “Come to Yoshikawa and don’t miss the catfish and eels.
Yoshikawa City has positioned catfish as a symbol of regional development, and has developed catfish-related characters and specialties. In addition to the “Namarin” character, there is a local sake called “Namazu Gozen,” gourmet foods such as “Namazu Tataki” and “Namazu Harumaki,” as well as “Namazu Cola,” manju, and senbei (rice crackers).
