Enjoy "Meidai Uoke," glossy Edo-style grilled eels lined up in cedar barrels, in a Kyoto townhouse reminiscent of Gion.
"We entrust our spirit to eel to the single letter 'U'. " As the proverb goes, 'Five years to open, eight to skewer, a lifetime to grill,' the training required to master the taste of Edo grilled eel
...is profound. We open the best live eels from the back, remove the dorsal fin, tail fin and backbone, and grill them over high heat with Kumano binchotan charcoal. We purify the eels with natural water, steam them, and once they are soft, we grill them with a secret sauce using a single bamboo skewer. This "grilling" is where our skill is put to the test. The taste of Gion U-oke and 'U' is perfected here.
