    Shizuoka Pref. Mishimashi Midorichou 21-6
    This eel restaurant was established over 60 years ago in Mishima City, Shizuoka Prefecture. It is a very popular restaurant that sells out at lunchtime even on weekdays, to the point that it almost never stays open until the evening. Its most famous dish is the unagi-don eel bowl topped with aromatic broiled eel. There are three secrets to its deliciousness: the underground water from Mt. Fuji in which the eels are kept alive for several days, the sauce made from a secret recipe added to over the years and the cooking skills of the chefs that are passed down through the generations. The unagi liver tsukudani (preserved in sweetened soy sauce) and hone sembei (crackers made from eel bones) are popular as gifts to take home.

    三島はうなぎの名店が多い町で、私もいくつか行きました。 ここは、老舗としてよくも悪くも三島のスタンダードで、価格は高からず安からず、味付けも標準的。よく言えば王道で、悪く言えば個性が無い。(老舗の場合は個性は必要ないかもしれませんね。)店選びに悩んだら少なくても失敗は無いです。
