Choosing a meal in Chiba
Namerou is chopped fish mixed with miso and aromatics, not sliced sashimi, and the fish used can vary. Check the menu for the seafood dish you want; Chiba’s peanut sweets make a separate snack rather than the same meal.
Tips for choosing a restaurant
If you see namerou on a seafood menu, ask which fish is used. This chopped fish dish includes miso and aromatics, so the flavour varies with the ingredients.
