The Yondaime, 4th Generation
Chef Kikukawa Yuhei
Yondaime, fourth generation family head of Nakasho Shoten Ltd (wholesaler of unagi for over 90 years) and the owner of Unagi restaurants in Japan.
Yuhei started cooking unagi when he was only 12 years old.

Only one “Crisp, Fluff and Melt” Unagi
1. Cooking only begins after orders.
The best way to enjoy Unagi is serving right after fillet and grill it.
Our freshly grilled Unagi is delightfully crisp on the outside with capturing traditional Japanese "umami" inside and the meat is tender and fluffy.
Unagi Yondaime Kikukawa prepare and cook Unagi with cook-to-order style to serve The Freshest Unagi which “melt in your mouth”.
2. Connoisseur of Unagi, based on history
We only serve The best Unagi, The best quality, size and thickness,
As Unagi connoisseur based on the experience of Unagi wholesaler, supplying to many famous Unagi restaurants for over 90 years.
We always select the most suitable Unagi for “kabayaki”, charcoal grill by carefully selecting ingredients without compromising.
To serve The Best Unagi dish to our customers.
3. Extra large Unagi
Our extra large Unagi weighing about 300g, chosen from the texture we believe the best.
This larger than the common one, the meat is thick enough not shrinking even grill well the outside and it has right amount of fat to withstand the strong fire of Bincho charcoal.
That is why our Unagi chef can grill Unagi perfectly crispy the outside to seal 100% of Umami inside of its tender meat.
This is the reason of the only one taste and texture of “Crisp, Fluff and Melt”.

Quote from the Michelin guide:
"An Unagi restaurant run by a long-established unagi wholesaler.
Their unagi is large and thick.
The unagi meat does not shrink and a moderate amount of fat remains with baked slowly over high heat.
The signature dish is "Ipponju", which is a whole unagi placed on top of rice.
Unagi skewer set is served with liver head and neck with skewered, you can enjoy unagi to the fullest."
