What’s for Lunch?

Koyanagi, Asakusa

I hope it’s not becoming politically incorrect to like eating eel, since we just enjoyed unagi for lunch. It seems it may be soon be on the endangered species list, like blue fin tuna. Well, if you don’t feel to guilty it’d be worth trying the unagi at Koyanagi in Asakusa, just a few blocks away from the giant lantern on Kaminarimon. The unagi is very tender, nicely sweetened and a very reasonable price. Upstairs is a big tatami room with at least 8 large tables so it was ok taking the kids along – we went with 4 young kids and had no seating problems. And K loves unagi so he enjoyed it very much.img_8552-01.jpg

    Then we’ll have to go here again next time you are back!! Now that I’m living here, I can understand Japanese food more and more so I’m starting to taste the difference between Japanese food here and in the US and it really isn’t the same.
