MICHI is the only restaurant in Regina that serves authentic Japanese cuisine prepared by veteran Japanese chefs. We have an extensive menu for lunch, dinner, and take-out. You can choose from a wide selection of sushi, sashimi, tempura, teriyaki meat dishes, donburi, and noodle dishes. For a unique cultural experience and an expertly prepared meal, our friendly staff invites you to visit MICHI soon!History of Michi

MICHI was opened in December of 2003 by co-owners, Toshiji Shinmura and Michihiro Oishi. Shinmura immigrated to Canada from Japan in 1977 and took up residence in Regina. During the years that followed, a few restaurants professing to be Japanese were opened here, but the Japanese community found them to be lacking in authenticity and quality. Shinmura wanted to give the people of Regina a truly authentic Japanese restaurant with high-quality food and at reasonable prices. Meanwhile, his longtime friend in Japan, Mr. Oishi, was seeking an opportunity to invest in a foreign venture. He decided that a Japanese restaurant in the middle of the Canadian Prairies would be ideal, so he and Shinmura struck up a partnership, and MICHI was established. It has become the only restaurant in Regina that serves authentic Japanese cuisine prepared by veteran Japanese chefs.

Our five chefs are from Tokyo and Shizuoka, Japan. Shizuoka Prefecture is on the Pacific coast of Japan where many kinds of fish are available, making it an ideal location for our chefs’ years of training and work experience in traditional Japanese cooking skills.

We prepare our menu items using fresh and high quality ingredients. The seafood served at MICHI comes from Japan through a Japanese company in Vancouver. We also offer a wide selection of wines which have been carefully chosen to complement our cuisine. Our menu features signature combos, monthly lunch specials, and sushi party trays.

Our logo is designed from the Japanese letter “michi” in Mr. Oishi’s name, Michihiro. The meaning is “road” or “way”. The same letter can be pronounced “doe” as in judo (gentle way) and kendo (way of the sword). So you see, MICHI is the way to great sushi!

Located in the scenic Port of Vancouver, The Cannery Seafood Restaurant has been a prime lunch and dinner destination for business people, locals and visitors since 1971.

The Cannery has become a landmark and a restaurant of distinction by setting the standard for the freshest seafood in Vancouver for more than 35 years. The Cannery is only 15 minutes from downtown with ample free parking as well as a boat docking facility. Reservations are recommended.

History

The Cannery Seafood Restaurant opened its doors on August 15 th, 1971. With vision and determination, a small bay in Vancouver’s bustling harbour was transformed into a legendary dining destination. It all began when 46 pilings were driven into the ocean floor to create the foundation of the restaurant you see today.

The Cannery is a simple, traditional building exemplifying the small fish canneries that dotted the west coast inlets of BC. The Cannery Queen gill-netter located at the entrance to the parking lot extends a nautical welcome to guests. The restaurant’s decor has evolved ad hoc, with each new piece finding its place among the others. The decorations include a ship’s boiler, inverted and turned into a circular fireplace beside the downstairs bar. A whale rib sits over a table while crab traps, brailing nets, gill nets, photographs and memorabilia adorn the walls. Old hatch covers from a fishing boat create bar tables and the coil from the fireplace boiler hangs as a chandelier between the Chowder Bar and the main dining room. The bar and wood paneling covering the Cannery walls was rescued from a 100 year old barn on the Fraser River near Ladner.

The Cannery is a place of integrity. Above all, it is a place of comfort, good food and good wine.
