This time, I visited 'Hitsumabushi Nagoya Bincho', located on the 6th floor of Solamachi, just a 5-minute walk from Oshiage Station, where you can enjoy authentic “hitsumabushi” in Tokyo!
A feature of this place is the rare “grilled directly over fire” preparation method that is uncommon in Kanto; it’s the Nagoya specialty “bincho hitsumabushi,” which is grilled over a strong distant flame without steaming. You can savor the delicious eel with the unique tamari soy sauce and mirin from local Aichi, which has a rich brewing culture.
The skin is crispy while the flesh is moist and bursting with flavor, providing an irresistible texture!
Because of the simple ingredients, the chef's skill and ability to select the best materials are put to the test. The elasticity and fat content of the eel are perfectly balanced to achieve optimal deliciousness. Only the “just right” eel is carefully selected from various regions both domestically and internationally.
Additionally, only new rice from environmentally-friendly farming methods is used, allowing you to enjoy the delightful taste of fresh, steaming rice that fills your mouth with happiness♡
The secret sauce made with tamari soy sauce enhances the flavor of the eel and pairs exceptionally well with the dashi broth for the tea-cooked rice.
The registered trademark 'Hitsumabushi Nagoya Bincho' offers a unique experience that is hard to find elsewhere where you can enjoy it in three different ways.
【How to Enjoy】
First, scoop hitsumabushi from the pot into a rice bowl with a ladle and enjoy the original hitsumabushi as it is.
Next, enhance the flavor with tangy Japanese seasonings by adding wasabi and chopped scallions. The combination of Japanese flavors and moderate spiciness will create a lingering aftertaste.
Finally, add wasabi, scallions, and shredded nori, then pour the dashi over it to make it into a tea-cooked rice dish. This is the ultimate way to enjoy the aromatic hitsumabushi.
Menu I ordered:
【Special Hitsumabushi】
Unlike the grilled eel of Edo-mae, the eel is grilled directly without steaming, resulting in a crispy, fragrant outside and a fluffy, juicy inside—truly delicious! Additionally, with the provided dashi broth and seasonings, it can also be enjoyed as tea-cooked rice, making it delightful in two ways!
There are also affordable course menus and children’s menus, making it enjoyable for the whole family.
Once again, Harapeko-chan is completely satisfied!
Thank you for the meal.
