This is our first time having conger eel. Hubs is super eager as he loves unagi very much. We were kind of worried as its quite late and this place is known to be very popular. We were one of the last customers and it was a decent meal.
The eel comes with a green condiment which i originally thought was dried wasabi but it wasn't. It was a green pepper powder. Do give it a taste as its quite interesting and numbing.
I ordered the small size while hubs ordered the large size anago - meshi (glaze grilled conger eel). The eel has a very charred smoky taste like it has been smoked for a while and drier than the regular eel we are used to.
I thought the taste quite unique while hubs wasn't too impressed with the taste. He state that he would have preferred the sweeter and fatter eel that we eat. Overall, its a should try for conger eel. If there is better alternatives, you have something else.
