Kamaei(日文店名為かま栄) / Kamaei

Kamaei (Otaru City) is a very old kamaboko maker, established in 1905. Kamaboko is boiled fish paste. They sell a variety of kamaboko products at their 12 branches throughout Hokkaido, and their factory is located between Otaru Canal and the very popular tourist site - Sakaimachi Street. You can observe the production process of the kamaboko through the show window for free. As the main production time at the factory is in the morning, it is wise to visit before 12.00 p.m. This factory is connected to a shop which also has seating for diners. No reservations are needed for the restaurant. Their most popular product is Pan Roll, which is rolled kamaboko with a slice of bread. Pan means bread in English.

Kamaei(日文店名為かま栄，位於小樽市）是從1095年開業後持續營業至今的魚漿製品老店。它在北海道內成立了12間店面。在因觀光客而熱鬧的堺町通和小樽運河之間的工廠可以免費參觀魚板製作的過程，而且不用事先申請。魚板製造的尖峰時段是在上午，因此如果要去參觀的話中午之前去比較好。想吃點點心的話我推薦Kamaei的魚板，最受歡迎的產品是在麵包上抹上魚漿後再炸過的魚漿麵包卷。
