furai is acknowledged as one of Nagoya's specialty foods mainly due to a joke made by the popular Japanese tarento (celebrity) Tamori about ebi furai being called ebi furyaa in the Nagoya dialect. Whilst this term did not exist in the Nagoya dialect prior to his joke, as foreign loan words generally do not change in Japanese dialects, it led a large portion of his audiences to believe that this was an extant variant used in the Nagoya area.
