[Kyushu Yanagawa] Eating eel rice in a steamer at a century-old restaurant, spring outing Hina Matsuri Festival

After disembarking at Yanagawa ~ Okinawa Pier
There are several old eel shops on both sides of the Taiwan Strait
Wakamatsuya, Folk Art Tea House Six Riders, Benjiya, etc.
We went to the most famous

After getting the ticket, I wandered around and waited for about 20 minutes for a table
Upstairs the traditional Japanese-style tatami
The set includes the most basic eel rice🤤
You can also order Dasheng or Extra Eel Rice for an additional fee

Steamed eel rice originated in Yanagawa, which is different from the way of yaki
Instead, the rice is first mixed into the secret sauce and steamed once.
Then put the grilled eel and egg strips on top and steam again
Come had to try the local steamed eel rice

And the rice - the secret sauce is perfectly steamed into the rice, like cooking rice
Moist and sweet covered with eel sauce, a little like sticky rice, very appetizing ~
The yuko eel in the shop is also worthy of praise🥚
It turned out to be Mi🐽Lin's recommendation, world-class eel rice
It's better than Nagoya's eel rice!

Although you are traveling, do not be stingy, order the tastiest and largest portion to eat
But this time I strongly recommend that you do not need to pay extra to switch to Dasheng,
Because it ✨package✨ is this portion for a reason,

✨ (Yagikawa day trip package bought by West Rail Tenjin
Includes round trip ticket to West Rail Tenjin and Yanagawa.
A set meal from 8 designated eel restaurants)✨

Switching to the special serve is really full to the throat 🤣!
Remember to check it out before you leave

After your meal, go ahead and queue for the free bus🚌
(For those who bought the package, get on the bus and issue the end of the ticket)
Every right time (i.e. 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00)
There is a free bus back to outside the store
Or the package has a coupon discount to call 🚕 (DiDi) back to the station
(You can ask the clerk to call it for you)

Next stop we go to
(Tickets to Dazaifu are not included in the package
but you can take a bus to the Dazaifu Station ticket office to make up for it)
Or you can take the West Rail directly back to Tenshin💫

Overall, this eel rice is very characteristic.
And it was very delicious, there was a reason for the long queues
Personally, I think it's more worth trying again than Nagoya's eel rice
