Wonderful Una-don experience in Nagoya. I am well aware that Nagoya is famous for Hitsumabushi but since I had a shima-ochazuke for lunch, I decided to just for a traditional una-don and I feel slight regret for my decision as I really loved their Una-don... now I am curious how wonderful their Hitsumabushu will be, lol. I am definietely coming back here again in the future. If you want to enjoy your delicious, juicy unagi with a beautiful garden view right next to you, come to Owada.
