Chuo City, Tokyo, Japan｜Umeda

Since I was bringing an infant with me, I asked if a stroller was possible and made a reservation in advance. I was a little nervous since it was an eel restaurant, but everyone at the restaurant, including the owner, was very kind. We had a seat prepared for us with a stroller, so we were able to eat without any problems. I had the Umeda bowl, and it was refreshing, and the eel was crispy on one side and fluffy on the other, and I really liked the taste and doneness. The staff and the eel bowl are amazing! ! ! thank you very much. I would like to visit you again.

At my mother's request, "I saw eel on TV and it looked delicious, so I wanted to eat it," so we went to Ningyocho Umeda. More than 10 years ago, I ate ``Unagidon with plums on top of the rice under the eel'' at this restaurant and was very impressed. Every time I pass by the store and look at the price, the price has gone up year by year, and I never go back until today. However, when I went there for the first time in a while and ate it, it was even more delicious than I remembered. Ehime's farmed eel, which is steamed until plump and aromatically grilled over binchotan charcoal, is flavored with dashi soy sauce instead of the kabayaki sauce. The combination of fragrant soy sauce-flavored eel, shredded nori, pounded umeboshi and green onions, and delicious rice was enough to make a bowlful of eel and rice go by in no time. In fact, even my mother, who has never been a fan of eel, enjoyed eating it and said, ``It's delicious. It's full of energy!'' The liver soup, pickles, and dessert of boiled red beans were all delicious. I made a reservation for 13:00 and went there, and it was nice to be able to eat quietly as it was private. My mom and I went out to eat at a lot of places, but this was our favorite restaurant for both of us. The only disappointing thing is that photography is not allowed inside the store. But I want to go eat there again.

An impressive eel bowl. I had the Umeda bowl. The rice is topped with pickled plums, seaweed, and sesame seeds, topped with plenty of crispy grilled eel. I was half hopeful and half nervous, but when I tried it, I was pleasantly surprised! I never thought there was such a delicious way to eat eel! I'm sure you have your own preferences, but I think it's delicious, especially on a hot day. It was a rare restaurant that I would definitely want to come back to. Next time I'd like to try the regular eel bowl, but I'd also like to try the Umeda bowl. I really liked the atmosphere of the store and the customer service, which was warm and efficient.
