鰻の成瀬 江坂店
The shop called Naruse Unagi, located a short walk from Esaka Station on the Osaka Metro and Kita-Osaka Kyuko, was easy to spot from the outside.
It had a calm atmosphere, with counter seats and table seats, and there was also some pepper on the table.
I ordered the "nami unaju" (medium-sized eel box) with 3/4 of a eel.
The unaju came with:
- Unagi (eel)
- Suimono (clear soup)
- Tsukemono (pickled vegetables)
- Gari (pickled ginger)
- Green onions
- Wasabi
- Extra sauce for dipping—very luxurious!
When I opened the lid of the box, the beautifully glistening eel was shining.
The fluffy eel was tender and went perfectly with the savory-sweet sauce—it was incredibly delicious! Despite being lower in fat, it was still light and fluffy but very tasty.
I personally enjoyed the pairing with wasabi, and it was delicious!
The rice complemented the dish well, as the sauce clung to it perfectly, and I even added more sauce.
I sprinkled a little bit of pepper, which added a nice kick and was tasty.
The pickles were also delicious, and the clear soup had a refreshing taste that went well with the eel.
It was very reasonable, and I was happy to enjoy a generous amount of eel!
