The dish not only delivers rich flavors but also incorporates a crunchy burdock root kinpira, adding delightful texture to the experience.
This year, in addition to the two types of unagi rice dishes available until the end of August, Tagosaku will introduce a selection of premium offerings exclusive to July 19th. Perfect for those wishing to indulge in a small luxury while fueling up for summer!
