You can eat fluffy and delicious eel, so you can feel that you are eating something good. This time I ordered a large unaju, which was just the right amount for me. There is eel on top, but I was impressed that there is eel inside. I went on a weekday this time and it was empty, but it seems that there are more customers on normal days, so I recommend going early. #Sakura2024 #Kumamoto

Sophie's Japan Kyushu Travel| In order to take a special sightseeing train, deliberately take the Emerald Mountain Jade Train from Kumamoto to the terminal station. This is really a small town where the niche can no longer be a small crowd. After the train, I went straight to the Shangcun squatter (squid), which is a one-hundred-year-old shop No.1. It is basically no way to walk for 15 minutes. A little scary, according to the navigation guide to the door of a small shop, the door was opened for a moment to understand that everyone came to the squid house for lunch. The facade is small, but the inside is quite big. There are small tables outside. Some of them are large private rooms. The decoration is super old. The tatami, the library, the cast iron kettle hanging on the charcoal fire, reveals the ancient Japanese culture. The key squid rice, here is the Japanese domestic wild life charcoal grill, of course, even rice and charcoal also emphasize the use of the nearby ball mill area, 100 years dedicated to a bowl of squid rice. About 15 minutes to the table, the cheapest is a bowl of squid rice, 3 squid without soup, the price of 1900 yen, the amount of girls is enough. The squid skin is baked with a very fragrant and crispy taste. The inside is very lively, so it is refreshing, soft and gravy, and the fine thorns are basically cleaned. One piece can't stop, and the rice is stained with squid juice. I bite it, I can rarely eat such soft rice, and I have a bowl of glutinous rice soup that I have to try. It is the favorite of my dozens of squid rice.
