Strawberries are in season now, and you can now see dishes using strawberries in various stores. Kesennuma strawberries are mainly grown in the Hashikami area of ​​Kesennuma, and are often shipped within the city, so they are harvested when they are close to being "fully ripe," at their sweetest. This is why you can enjoy fresher, sweeter Kesennuma strawberries. In this article, we will introduce stores that offer dishes using Kesennuma strawberries.
