Ehime
An eel restaurant in Matsuyama City, Ehime Prefecture. Domestic eels are cooked plump in the Kanto style, and the skin is thoroughly grilled to bring out the fragrant aroma. The sansho pepper used is from Niyodogawa Town, Kochi Prefecture, and has a rich aroma that brings out the flavor of the eel. The restaurant stocks local sake from Ehime Prefecture's Toyo, Chuyo, and Nanyo, and the wines are carefully selected, focusing on natural varieties. The interior features a calm, modern Japanese atmosphere with table seating, making it perfect for dining together. There are also plenty of counter seats, so solo diners can easily stop by.
Although eel is known as a luxury ingredient, it was a dish loved by common people during the Edo period. Even now, in areas famous for eel and in downtown areas, there are restaurants where you can casually stop by and enjoy eel such as umaki, uzaku, and shirayaki, allowing you to experience the food culture that has been alive since ancient times. There are also restaurants that specialize in ``unagi skewers,'' in which each part of the eel is skewered and grilled. It tastes like yakitori and can be enjoyed as an inexpensive accompaniment to alcohol.
