Unagi in Kawagoe

June 11, 2008 on 9:18 pm | In Food, Travel | | Email This Post

One of my last fancy meals in Japan was scrumptious eel (a dish called unagi-jyuu, eel and rice, and eel, and more rice) in Kawagoe.

I absolutely love this stuff.

Love it.

There is something about these unagi-don type dishes that is irresistable once you get past the fact that it’s, well, eel.

The pickeled vaiety side dish (tsukemono).

Soup.

If you’re wandering around Kawagoe, just look for this shop curtain (noren). The shop is called “Unagi Ichinoya“.

Unagi. One of the rare Japanese foods that often tastes better outside of Osaka… But only sometimes. And in Osaka it’s cheaper.

    Great restaurant. I lived in Kawagoe for a year, everyone says that that shop is famous. I think it was on TV one time, so that makes it famous.
