Japanese style Stir-fried Eel with Rice restaurant located near Gimpo International Airport and Seoul Botanic Park.
Japanese-style eel rice bowl, also known as “Unadon,” is a traditional dish in Japan. “Unagi” refers to eel in Japanese, and “Don” denotes a meal served on top of rice. So, Unadon translates to “grilled eel over rice.”
Eel is highly esteemed in Japanese cuisine, particularly during the summer months for its replenishing qualities and stamina-building properties. It’s typically prepared by grilling the eel with salt or marinating it in a special sauce before grilling over charcoal.
Unadon involves placing the grilled eel over a bed of rice and is usually served with a seasoned soy-based sauce. Its distinct savory sauce and the aroma of grilled eel combine to create a rich and flavorful dish
In Korea, eel dishes are highly regarded for their nutritional supplementation and strength-building functions, and they are one of the popular foods, especially in summer.
In Korea, eel is generally grilled over charcoal and eaten like BBQ, but Japanese eel rice is also popular for a quiet and calm place.
