【Hiroshima Prefecture】Miyajima Delicacy -Congridae Eel Bento

Posted on by nicklee

Hiroshima is famous not only for its oysters, but also for the eel in Miyajima. So, after having eel dumplings earlier, it’s a must to have an eel bento for lunch on the train.

Before leaving Miyajima, I stopped by the famous Kamameshi restaurant, Hanabishi, and got a few bento boxes to enjoy later on the Shinkansen.

This is what they look like, priced at ￥1800 each.

It’s very simple, just one fresh eel, and a few slices of ginger.

In terms of the rice portion, there is also a principle of drizzling sauce. Overall, the taste of this bento is okay, but since it was just made, it is slightly warmer in temperature compared to the station bento I bought earlier.

Additional screening, the sea bass bento box purchased in 2010 is only ¥1050.

Just 2 whole anchovies

On the side, there is a fried fish bone and pickled vegetables. Due to the movement while taking the photo, it didn’t turn out well. However, the fish bone is quite delicious, with a crispy texture.

When it comes to food, if it’s cold, it’s not as delicious as the bento shop’s offerings~

Above is the famous Congridae Ee box from Miyajima.

Finally, Personal Food Rating: ★★★ (3).
I think that both of these bento boxes, I can only say that Hanabishi’s is really more delicious, but it is also more expensive (￥1800)~ If possible, it would be better to eat on-site~ As for the anago bento bought at Hiroshima Station, it is relatively cheaper (￥1050) but it’s not tasty when cold~ So for those who want to buy it, you should consider it…

Rating Criteria:
Five stars: Super delicious; after eating, you’ll want to find a place in Taiwan that sells it!
Four stars: Delicious; if you have the chance to go to Japan, you’ll want to buy it again.
Three stars: Not bad; it’s good to have tried it.
Two stars: Average; just wanted to taste the flavor, you can buy it.
One star: Won’t fall for it again (potential disappointment).

Traditional Snacks of Mie Prefecture – YASUNAGAMOCHI

Throughout Japan, there are traditional local snacks (specialties) that are limited to each region. Therefore, if you don’t eat these foods when you visit a place, it feels like you haven’t really been there. Luckily, the hotel provides this snack. This time, I tried the traditional snack from Mie Prefecture called “YASUNAGAMOCHI”. Just hearing the name makes you feel like you’re eating something that brings peace and safety. The hotel also provides tea bags, and next to them is a sencha tea.

I thought I was going to have to head into the city again, but to my surprise, it’s actually in Fengshan. 😍
The place seems to have opened not long ago, with quite a new decor. It’s not a large space, but the key point is that it’s open until 11:00 PM, which is quite rare for a café in Fengshan to stay open that late!
It’s so convenient to arrange a food hunt with friends 😂

What’s unique is that there’s an entire piece of honeycomb on top of the drink that you can eat. However, I find the honeycomb too sweet for my liking.

In early November, due to a friend’s birthday, I came across numerous foodie groups highly recommending Xindian on the internet. Thinking that a birthday celebration for my friend should be nothing short of spectacular, I immediately made a reservation. As many online reviews had warned, it was indeed challenging to get through on the phone! Just when I was about to give up after numerous attempts, the call finally went through. Phew! Luckily, I managed to secure a reservation, or else it would have been me letting the side down. And so, our party arrived at Xindian in full force to celebrate the birthday~ (I later found out that Xindian also accepts online reservations, so no more endless phone calls~ Xindian online reservation-)
