Unagi Fujita Description
What sets Unagi Fujita apart from other dining establishments is its commitment to using only the highest quality ingredients and traditional cooking techniques. The eel is sourced fresh daily and expertly grilled over a charcoal fire, resulting in a tender and flavorful dish that is truly unforgettable. The menu offers a variety of options, from the classic unagi donburi (grilled eel served over rice) to more adventurous dishes like unagi sushi and unagi tempura.
One of the standout dishes at Unagi Fujita is their signature Hitsumabushi, a Nagoya-style preparation of grilled eel. The eel is served in three different ways: first, enjoy the eel on its own to savor the natural flavors; then, mix it with rice and condiments for a delightful combination of textures and tastes; finally, enjoy the remaining eel and rice in a flavorful broth. This unique dining experience allows guests to fully appreciate the versatility and deliciousness of eel.
Whether you're a fan of eel or looking to try it for the first time, Unagi Fujita is the perfect destination for an authentic and memorable dining experience. Immerse yourself in the rich flavors of Japanese cuisine and indulge in the exquisite art of unagi preparation at this hidden gem in Shirokanedai.
