Toshima City, Tokyo, Japan｜Ufuku

Yummy .. very tasty

Located in Otsuka Norengai, an area lined with Showa retro-style izakaya restaurants that have been renovated from old houses, Ufuku mainly serves ``Utsumami,'' snacks made with eel. Here is the menu I ordered this time. ・Sapporo Black Label Raw 539 yen The first drink is draft beer. It is included in the Ufuku logo glass. ・Addictive bone cracker 319 yen It's a crispy fried eel bone cracker with a strong salty flavor that goes well with alcohol. It's also delicious when you sprinkle mayonnaise with sansho and eat it with sansho mayo. ・Green onion covered eel liver ponzu sauce 429 yen There are plenty of green onions on it. It has a nice crunchy texture and goes perfectly with alcohol. ・Pine Pine Sour 539 yen It's a pineapple-filled drink with pineapple sour, pulp, and sherbet. At first it's refreshing, but as the sherbet gradually melts, you can feel the sweetness of pineapple. ・Sauce-grilled smoked eel and flavored egg potato salad 649 yen As the name suggests, this is a potato salad topped with smoked eel and half-boiled flavored eggs. I eat everything mixed together, and the sweet and salty sauce from the eel mixed with the potato salad was really delicious. The smoked aroma also whets the appetite. ・Highball for eel 539 yen This is a slightly sweet highball made with Ufuku's recommended alcoholic beverage, apple bourbon. Adding a little bit of Japanese pepper to your drink will give it a nice accent and make it even more delicious. ・Eel butter 385 yen A snack of salty eel topped with butter. The richness of the butter matches the flavor of the eel. The butter will gradually melt, so it's best to eat it as soon as possible. ・White strips 330 yen, strips 330 yen, chestnut 330 yen, liver 330 yen Among the eel skewers, I received Ufuku's standard skewers. Tanzaku is made by cutting eel meat into strips and skewering them, and they are seasoned with sauce and salt. Also, the chestnut meat, which comes from the eel's dorsal fin, had more fat on it than normal parts, making it even more fluffy. ・Katte rice 165 yen You can buy your favorite eel skewers with rice topped with eel sauce and put them on top to make your own original eel bowl. The eel bowl was the best way to finish off the meal. There are many nourishing and energizing menu items such as eel dishes and other dishes such as soft-shelled turtle. It was a very nice restaurant where you could enjoy eel made with high quality ingredients at a reasonable price. Also, the surrounding area is a noren street and the overall atmosphere is good, so it might be fun to go bar hopping.

The sake served in the earthquake-reinforced wooden building is delicious. I think 290 yen per piece of grilled eel on a skewer is cheap.
