What is Hitsumabushi

A local Nagoya delicacy made by finely chopping grilled eel and mixing it with rice.

There is a set way to eat it:

Divide it into 4 portions, eat it as is the first portion, top with condiments such as green onions and nori seaweed on top of the second portion, pour dashi over the third portion to make it like ochazuke, and finally eat it however you like!

Delicious!

The meat is fluffy and the skin is crispy. The texture and taste are both great. I had it as is at first, then added the condiments, then poured the broth over it. I usually pour the broth over the last one, but I wanted to enjoy this texture so I just added the condiments and ate it as is. I went there at 5pm when they open, and there were several groups of people who came in without a reservation, so if you come early, this might be a hidden gem. Thank you for the meal.
