Narita Kawatoyoshi

A long-established eel specialty restaurant located on the approach to Naritasan Shinshoji Temple. Famous for its live eel filleting performance at the storefront, with fragrant smoke drifting through the street that whets the appetite. The eel, grilled carefully over bincho charcoal, is crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The secret sauce, continuously added to since the restaurant's founding, is the key to the flavor. Many people stop by when visiting Naritasan for New Year's prayers or when using the airport. There are often wait times, but it's a dish worth waiting in line for.
