Fukui Una Shin
Famous Eel "Seiromushi" and Eel Dishes
When it comes to eel in Fukui, the restaurant is so famous that it is often referred to as "Unashin". The traditional "Seiro - mushiju" is especially popular. By steaming the eel with rice in a bamboo steamer, the flavor of the eel is further enhanced and the eel becomes soft and fluffy, creating a delicate dish that you'll want to try at least once. Steamed crab dishes are also popular during the winter, and many customers come from outside the prefecture. You can order course meals to suit your budget, so we recommend that as well. The interior has a calm atmosphere reminiscent of a Japanese inn, and we have added table seats. We cater for everything from small group meals to families.
