Located in Seki City, Gifu Prefecture, Shigeyoshi is a popular destination that draws many visitors from afar for its Kansai-style jiyaki eel prepared with masterful technique. Grilled over high-heat charcoal without any steaming, the eel develops an appetizingly crisp skin and a remarkably plump, juicy texture inside. The specialty unadon features a subtly sweet, refined tare sauce and firmly cooked rice that highlight the rich flavor of the kabayaki, with extra eel tucked inside the rice for a luxurious touch. The restaurant also offers an array of à la carte dishes, including an elegant kimosui (eel liver clear soup) with fragrant broiled liver, and generously sized, aromatic kimoyaki (grilled liver) glazed in a delightfully bittersweet sauce. Inside, tatami seating (zashiki) provides a calm environment where families and road-trippers can enjoy a comfortable meal.
