What’s more, they incorporate a special unagi sauce recipe from a 100-year-old unagi restaurant in Tsukiji, giving diners the best-tasting unagi dishes in the metro. Paired with Japanese Koshihikari rice, their unagi dishes achieve an ensemble of fresh and perfectly seasoned flavors, capturing the delicate flavors of Japanese cuisine.
All these efforts are elevated by the expertise of the shop owner, Mr. Terashima, who has garnered his knowledge from a high-class tempura specialty store in Ginza. Behind the scenes, three skilled Japanese chefs meticulously craft each dish, ensuring that the essence of Japanese culinary artistry is preserved.
