Japan’s grilled unagi expert, Manmaru, has opened its first-ever overseas location in Tuen Mun. Hailing from Shizuoka Prefecture, this specialist restaurant uses a steaming technique – briefly steaming the binchotan charcoal-grilled eel in freshly cooked rice to impart the eel’s smoky and fatty flavours into the rice, creating a smooth, full-bodied, and layered taste. Here, you can enjoy meal sets with a whole grilled eel – served plain or coated in a sticky eel sauce, eel-topped bentos served with pickles, or grilled eels a la carte. If you’re feeling adventurous, Manmaru offers other eel cuts such as eel shoulder, eel liver, and eel bones that are definitely worth a try.
