[Sumiyaki Unafuji] Authentic Nagoya-style Hitsumabushi eel rice bowl in Tokyo💪

This is a famous eel rice bowl restaurant that started in Nagoya, where you can fully enjoy the deep flavor of eel grilled over charcoal. 🐟 What is Hitsumabushi? (ひつまぶし) - Nagoya-style eel rice bowl Hitsumabushi is a traditional eel rice bowl from the Nagoya region, and has different characteristics from the typical unadon (うな丼, eel rice bowl). Characteristics of Hitsumabushi: ✔ Eel is finely chopped and placed on top of rice ✔ You can enjoy it in three ways with one dish ✔ Charcoal grilling with a harmony of crispy skin and moist flesh ✨ Recommended menu • Upper Hitsumabushi (上ひつまぶし) - 5,750 yen Recommended if you want to enjoy authentic Nagoya-style eel rice bowl as a basic hitsumabushi! 🍽 How to eat Hitsumabushi in 3 steps 1️⃣ Just eat it as is - Taste the flavor of crispy grilled eel 2️⃣ Add some sesame seeds and eat - Add green onions, seaweed, and wasabi for more flavor 3️⃣ Enjoy it in ochazuke style - Pour warm broth and finish it off refreshingly✨ If you like eel, you'll be more satisfied because you can experience various flavors in one bowl! Actually, I didn't like eel rice bowl or unagi-don because the eel tasted a bit earthy. But my thoughts completely changed after eating Hitsumabushi..! The eel was cut into small pieces, so it was soft and there was no bone in the way. And it was great to eat rice and eel in one bite. Personally, I liked eating it in ochazukeㅎㅎ🤤 The combination of salty sauce and warm broth was so delicious! 📸 Visitor review When the food came out, the waiter gave us a light prop with the store name written on it and helped us take pretty pictures! The service that paid attention to even the smallest details was really impressive.ㅎㅎ And I made an online reservation for 4 or more people, so they guided me to a room! It was private and cozy, which was nice. 👍 If you want to eat hitsumabushi in Tokyo, come here! ✔ Tokyo Midtown Yaesu 3rd floor, connected to JR Tokyo Station, so it's easily accessible ✔ You can taste authentic Nagoya-style eel rice bowl in Tokyo ✔ If you make a reservation for 4 or more people, a private room is provided, and you can dine in a cozy atmosphere ✔ You can enjoy three flavors with one hitsumabushi 📌 Address: 〒104-0028 Tokyo, Chuo City, Yaesu, 2 Chome−2−1 Tokyo Midtown Yayesu, F3 🕒 Business hours: Every day 11:00-23:00 (last order 22:00) 💰 Payment method: Cash, credit card (VISA, MasterCard, JCB, AMEX, etc.) 🚃 Directions: ✔ 3-minute walk from JR Tokyo Station Yaesu South Exit ✔ Also accessible from Tokyo Metro Nihombashi Station and Kyobashi Station #TokyoRestaurants #TokyoTravel #JapaneseRestaurants #TokyoUnagi #Hitsumabushi #Unafuji #TokyoMidtownYaesu #TokyoStationRestaurant #JapaneseEelDon #UnagiDon #EelDon #TokyoPlacesToVisit #TokyoLocalRestaurant #TokyoRestaurantRecommendation #JapanTravelItinerary #TokyoEat #TokyoMichelinRestaurant #JapaneseEelCuisine #JapaneseLocalRestaurant #RestaurantNearTokyoStation #TokyoEelDon #JapanTravelRecommendation #TokyoMustRestaurant #JapaneseLocalRestaurant #TokyoMidtown #OverseasTravel
