The yummy unagi or grilled eel





We got a packet of unagi (980 Yen or S$12.50) from the supermarket and grilled it. We had it for dinner. It turned out to be scrumptious and thoroughly enjoyed it.The pickled cucumber was from our garden. It goes well with the unagi.


In July last year we had the unagi from a restaurant named
"Man Man" in Singapore (last 2 bottom pics) and this was what I wrote :

We queued for 40 minutes in order to get a seat at Man Man Unagi Restaurant when it opened for dinner at 6 pm. The address is 1, Keong Siak Road. The unagi or charcoal grilled eels were from Japan. The eel was superb. We ordered 2 Hitsumabushi. The large one was $35.80 and the smaller one was $26.80 (quite expensive)
The place was packed and while we were inside eating, there was another long queue of about 30 people waiting for their turn to get into the restaurant. Frankly, I do not like the 40 minutes of waiting in the hot sun outside as well as the crowded small restaurant.
