I recently got into eel dishes, so I chose this place. It was my first time trying Edogawa-san's eel dish. I decided to go all out and ordered the most expensive option, the Matsutake eel. The eel was incredibly fluffy and delicious. The rice had a nice flavor to it, with each grain being firm and separate. The sauce was a bit light and smooth. I felt like there was not enough sauce for the whole eel. Also, I thought there was too much rice.

In May 2021, I decided to buy dinner at the Depachika of Kyoto Takashimaya. This time, I targeted the eel from "Hanayu Koji Edogawa". Although the eel lunch box with a large portion of eel looked tempting, it was a bit pricey, so I chose the "eel kabayaki" which seemed to have a decent amount of eel. The eel was not only on top of the rice but also hidden inside the rice. It was very fragrant, with a sweet sauce that I liked. The sansho pepper added a nice kick to it, and it was very delicious. Thank you for the meal!
