Unagi in Matsuya

By | Tokyo | No Comments

 We love  unagi especially daddy and the hubby. We always go to the unagi place in Matsuya Restaurant City. We were at the same restaurant in Matsuya but in Sapporo just this February with @jlm72471 @7tri7 @tincmoreno @kaisterprimo We don’t even know the name 🙂  ( it’s in Japanese ) Unagi in Matsuya (6)  It takes 35 minutes to arrive from the time you order  Unagi in Matsuya (5)  It takes 35 minutes to arrive from the time you order so it’s good to order the appetizers – the Egg and Cucumber ones #Matsuya #H2HTokyo #unagiUnagi in Matsuya (3) Unagi in Matsuya (4)  Unagi Shirayaki – just plain eel that is broiled. It tastes so good with wasabi and it’s so healthy you can eat three of these ( without rice) and still feel hungry 🙂 That’s how healthy it is and you don’t feel heavy and regretful  #unagi #shirayaki #Matsuya #H2HTokyoUnagi in Matsuya (2) Unagi in Matsuya (1) Unagi in Matsuya (7)
