Nigiri-zushi will be available at the breakfast buffet from June 2024!
Since its opening in March 2022, Hotel Viscio Toyama, located in front of Toyama Station, has been offering a buffet-style breakfast buffet featuring local delicacies made with seasonal ingredients from Toyama Prefecture and other unique local tastes that allow guests to experience the four seasons in Toyama from morning.

Hotel Viscio Toyama has renewed its breakfast menu since June 2024, adding all-you-can-eat nigirizushi! Using seafood from Toyama Bay, guests can enjoy authentic sushi made right in front of them by a sushi chef. I have heard of morning curry and morning rah... but a hotel where you can eat "morning sushi" is quite rare in Japan! There are hotels that offer seafood rice bowls for breakfast or the Toyama specialty "masu-zushi", but a breakfast with all-you-can-eat authentic nigiri-zushi is a new specialty that is perfect for a hotel in Toyama Prefecture that claims "Toyama is known for its sushi".

This time, we have actually tasted the newly renovated breakfast buffet and would like to introduce it to you!

All-you-can-eat "nigirizushi" made by sushi chefs!

Nigiri-zushi at the counter
Nigiri-zushi are all lined up on the counter. The sushi items vary from day to day, but there are always five to six varieties available. Half of them are made with seafood from Toyama Prefecture. On this day, there were six types of sushi: pressed salmon, yellowtail, amaebi, kasago, mackerel, and sea bream! Three of them were locally produced in Uozu. The sushi was served on a cast aluminum plate that utilizes Takaoka copperware techniques from Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture.

We want to eat all kinds of sushi because we have to! and "I want to eat a lot of my favorite fish! I ended up choosing one of each type of sushi the first time, and had another helping of my favorite yellowtail the second time! All were delicious, but I was most satisfied with the thickly sliced yellowtail. Even if I thought I took too much, the chef would immediately replenish the sushi when it started to run low, so I could eat a lot without feeling guilty.
First, one kind each...
More Buri!

There is also a menu full of Toyama's originality that has been popular for a long time!

Tarte flambée of white shrimp (Alsatian-style pizza)
Of course, there is a full menu of dishes other than sushi. There was also tarte flambée (Alsatian-style pizza) with sumptuous white shrimp, gratin made with Gokayama tofu, Himi udon noodles with white shrimp broth, and Himi beef miso, blackened squid, and white shrimp okaka (bonito-flavored rice) to go with rice!

I was also happy to see that the "choucroute" that was my favorite in the previous breakfast report was still being served! It is a local dish from the Alsace region of France, made by slowly simmering sauerkraut (salted and fermented cabbage) and salt-aged pork or sausage together.

This is a menu item recommended by the staff of the Hokuriku Correspondence Department!
