The History of Kanazawa Oden and "Seasonal Oden Jun"
The origins of Kanazawa oden date back to 1920. The soup stock is made from dried bonito flakes, "jiwamon" (local ingredients in Kanazawa dialect) and light soy sauce from Ono, and the light broth is a characteristic of Kanazawa oden. Since the Hokuriku Shinkansen opened in 2015, Kanazawa oden has been attracting even more attention.
For "Seasonal Oden Jun," the soup stock is made using Rausu kelp and coarsely shaved dried bonito flakes, and then Ohno's light soy sauce is added to this first stock to create a soup that has a strong umami flavor.

The "Kanazawa-ness" of "Seasonal Oden Jun" is not limited to the broth. The oden ingredients include "jiwamon" (local delicacies) such as "ume shellfish" and "wheel-shaped gluten," as well as local tofu made using traditional methods. In addition, Kaga vegetables are used in abundance, and a wide selection of local sake from Kaga and Noto is available, so that each and every dish is designed to give you a taste of Kanazawa. The dishes served are made of Kutani ware, a traditional craft of Ishikawa Prefecture, so "Seasonal Oden Jun" is particular about allowing you to enjoy the oden visually as well.
Communication and Food Culture
Nishimura says, "I want people to not only enjoy the taste of oden, but also to feel the importance of communication through it." He says he aims to create a place where people can communicate with each other, not just enjoy a meal, but also talk with the owner and the people at the next table.
"Seasonal Oden Jun" is a rare oden restaurant in Kanazawa that accepts reservations. This popular long-established restaurant does not have a reservation system, and if you visit on the day, you may have to wait for four hours. By making a reservation, you can enjoy not only the oden but also plenty of communication in the restaurant. This is truly "the best part of Jun". We recommend that you make your reservation by phone by around noon on the day.
