I recently went to Little Tokyo in Los Angeles and ordered the Japanese Breakfast at a Japanese/French restaurant named Azay and absolutely loved it! Went back a second day and ordered the same thing.
My wife and I want to try making something similar on a regular basis.
This restaurant served it with Mackerel and most guides online use Salmon.
I don’t want to burn myself out, so I’m curious if there are other proteins (fish preferable) that are commonly used in a Japanese breakfast like this.
Or is there not a huge variety and do people just not got tired of this because it’s so good? Haha

Saury.
Grilled smelt, sardine, saffron cod, or yellowtail .
Love the striped shallow bowl. I got the full set.
Most any of the dried (japanese or korean) fishes can be used. Tai (sea bream) is also good as is yellow Cortina (Korean).
