A long-established store that exudes a family-run atmosphere, in a good way.
The shop is normally closed on Sundays, but it seems to be open on Sundays when the Ox Day falls on a Sunday.
During the preparation time, the ventilation fan facing the road always emits smoke with a strong aroma of charcoal and kabayaki, which is very tempting.
As someone who is used to quite sweet sauces, the sauce was mildly sweet. The eel was delicious.
