Hitsumabushi (Nagoya) “Kodaman’s J-TRIP”
“Hitsumabushi” is actually a kind of “Unagi don(Eel rice bowl)” .However, because the way of grill is different from its in other city. Usually “unagi don” is 2 pieces of broiled eels on the top of rice, but “Hitsumabushi” is cut eels in 1cm each.
The way of eating is very interesting for me. First, we cut “Hitsumabushi” 4 part like +.
1.Eat first part normally!
2. Eat second one with sesonings(such as “Wasabi” and “Seeweed” )
3.Eat Third one after pouring the broth (with seasonings must be great!)
4.Eat the last one the way of what we like the best (1,2 or 3)
In Nagoya, there are many “Hitsumabushi” restaurants but one of the most famous restaurant is “Hourai-ken“. Here is very crowded. So first we went there and they told us what time we had to come back. Then, when we went there on time, we didn’t need to wait more than 10min. The taste was different from others and very good. The atmosphere was nostalgic.
Here is located near “Atsuta shrine.” If one comes to here and have to wait for 1 hour or more, going Atsuta shrine(5min on foot) or Nagoya castle(20min by taxi) must be great idea. We actually went to Nagoya Castle.
