Many moons ago, on a trip to Kyoto, I followed my nose and chanced upon this Unagi-ya only to discover that it was the famed Hirokawa which has 1 Michelin star. After queuing for almost 2 hours, I was dying of hunger. My wait wasn't in vain. This is by far the best Unagi I have had. I can still remember how good it was. My only regret was not ordering the works!
