Uya 四代目菊川 Japanese Unagi Restaurant Saturday, May 19, 2018 @ May 19, 2018The bf was having unagi cravings so we headed to try out Uya! There were 3 choices initially which of course included Man Man and the newly opened Unagiya Ichinoji. Man Man was out of the question because the queue would totally make me extremely famished and frustrated. Did some further research on the latter and read some interested facts about the source of their eels from ieatishootipost. Unagiya Ichinoji's eels are sourced from Indonesia farmed eels which helps them to keep the pricing competitive as compared to the other 2 unagi speciality restaurants. Good for the future but for now, I'll try out Man Man and Uya first before the prices surge and their eel sources turn really low. Why Uya instead of Man Man? Firstly, it accepts reservations! Yay :) But alas, do not try making reservations just one day in advance, they are fully booked for the 7pm slots and you might not even get a 6pm slot if you are heading there in a large group. So do remember to call for seats at least a week in advance! Secondly, the quality of the eels are comparable to Man Man which is like a YES already. Thirdly and lastly, the queue there moves really fast so there is kindly a non-existent queue for couples or if you go in pairs. The menu   Saw quite a few people ordering the sashimi set and was rather tempted to get it. But some reviewers on Burpple mentioned that it be best to stick with unagi there. So here's what we had, 1 Hitsumabushi (Large) for the bf and 1 Unagi box for me. The difference between the two is that the Hitsumabushi's eel is about half the portion of the unagi box and it is nicely chopped plus it also includes condiments and dashi for the 3 methods of savouring the crisped skin and tender eel meat. Hitsumabushi (Signature) [M $35++ / L $48++] Chopped up Eel served with Condiments, Broth, Soup and Pickles   1. Taking the unagi and enjoying it with the sauce lathered rice. (PS for those who love sauce, they provide a bottle of eel sauce on each table for you to splash as much as you like) 2. Add in some rice and unagi into the bowl provided and place the spring onions, seaweed and wasabi (Yes, you did not see wrongly. It is wasabi) and mix them together. Surprisingly, wasabi went really well with the unagi and I really liked this way of enjoying my unagi with rice. 3. Add some dashi into the unagi with rice and eat up. Not really my type of unagi.
Unagi Rice Box [$46++]
  I prefer the unagi box as the portion of the unagi is almost doubled and though its not chopped, you could use your chopsticks to cut the unagi and when you lift it up, the tender meat of the unagi seems to bounce off. My mouth is salivating as I am writing this. Uya 四代目菊川 Japanese Unagi Restaurant
