Summer Time is Unagi Time!

That’s right, eel is all the rage this summer!! At least it was in July. Here’s some eel I feasted upon at a restaurant that serves mostly eel! It’s squishy, kind of like soggy fish, but not like ludafish. I was hungry, at ate this meal like it was my last, and it was good. If you haven’t tried it I recommend doing it at least once. If the taste reminds you of a dirty hippy, you know “earthy”, then you lost the unagi lottery my friend… so try again! If you’ve never had the earthy flavored eel, it’s like eating good eel with a handful of dirt (give it a try!).

    So how much are meals like this? Or eel in general? It looks very tasty on the outside!

    Unagi is good! And good for “natsu bate”, or so they say! It’s not bad..but yeah…kind of an “earthy…texture-y” type taste eh?

    Brandon - This meal was 1400 Yen. Depending on the restaurant you can can eel, rice, soup, and tea for 1000-2000.

    domce - Yeah! I think it’s some flavorless thing made of fish.

    Jyankee - I’m glad you know the taste I’m talking about!
