Kakujyo Fisheries Announces Revival of Grilled Unagi

After an eight-year hiatus, Kakujyo Fisheries is thrilled to announce a limited-time sale of their famous grilled unagi, ready to be enjoyed freshly cooked for the upcoming Doyo no Ushi Day, taking place from July 18 to July 19, 2024. This event marks a joyful return for many fans who had eagerly awaited the return of this delicacy. Known for its high sales during the Doyo no Ushi Day, the company aims to impress customers with the rich flavor and aroma of their grilled unagi.

The grilled unagi will be available at five selected stores in Saitama Prefecture: Kawaguchi, Soka, Koshigaya, Tokorozawa, and Omiya. Each store will feature a special tent set up outside where chefs will prepare the unagi over an open flame, creating an irresistible aroma that captivates customers. The texture of the fish is enhanced by the direct grilling process, leading to a crispy skin and a tender, juicy inside, making for a delicious meal reminiscent of specialized unagi restaurants. In addition to the grilled unagi, other cooking facilities in Kodaira, Hino, and Sagami stores will also offer freshly cooked unagi dishes.
