I visited for the first time in the evening.
I was told that the eel was recommended, so I ate various parts of the eel and they were all very delicious.
In particular, it was the first time I had eaten Shirayaki in my life, and it was very delicious.
It had a different flavor from the sauce and I was glad I could eat it.
The Shaoxing wine flavored eel dish was also very unusual and delicious.
If you like eel, I'm sure you'll be satisfied.
