Uoi Main Store

We visited “Uoi Main Store”, a Unagi specialty restaurant in Asahi-ku in Osaka, for dinner.
We visited one of my favorite restaurants that serves delicious Unagi, for the first time in a long while!
“Uzaku” (￥1,030)
When I try it with the cucumbers…

(ﾟДﾟ)Yummy!(ﾟДﾟ)Yummy!

So yummy!!!!
Crispy and smoky Unagi matches perfectly with the crunchy cucumbers, and the sweet and sour acidity of salted plum is simply amazing!

Bottled beer

The plump egg, with deep brothy flavors, matches perfectly with Unagi.
 

“Whale bacon” (￥1,100)
It is great that we can have whale at a Unagi restaurant!

The fat on the crunchy bacon is both sweet and rich, and very delicious!

“Squid in its ink” (￥500)

Irresistible flavors for sake-lovers. The rich umami of squid ink blends perfectly with the umami of the squid meat.

Added the broth for the third bowl!

(ﾟДﾟ)Yummy!(ﾟДﾟ)Yummy!

Amazing!!
This was simply amazing (^^
I am so full, and completely satisfied.

They offer a variety of small dishes, in addition to Unagi, allowing us to enjoy it as both Izakaya and Unagi specialty restaurant.
We got to the restaurant around 6:00pm, but it was already full. 5-6 people were waiting outside of the restaurant, and additional 7-8 people were waiting inside!
It is so popular.
It is a perfect place, when you are in the mood for having some drinks with Unagi and delicious small dishes.
