Our family visits the annual harbor festival at Mochimune Japan and brings home the catch of the day for an evening barbeque party! The small harbor town where the festival takes place is near the mouth of the Abe river, which spills mountain runoff from the rugged Japan Southern Alps into the deep waters of Suruga Bay. Marine life is abundant here and the large fishing fleet are the foundation of an active community of seafood merchants, popular restaurants and eager diners! The pre-dawn open air tuna market is a great place to get the best and freshest maguro sashimi!
