Tsukiji : Conger eel dinner at Kichiya

New conger eels specialty restaurant opened.

Recently new eateries, restaurants and cafes opened at Tsukiji Outer Market.
One of those shops, Kichiya is conger eels specialty restaurant.
Kichiya is a branch of the popular eatery that is named Yoshino in Tsukiji Outer Market.

I went to Yoshino once a long time ago.

Wow, very new. Kichiya stand in front of the entrance of Tsukiji Market.

ぴかぴかの吉弥におじゃましましたヽ(´ー｀)ノ

My friend is a regular customer, so we left everything to him. He ordered a special course.

Appetizer was Tuna salad (ツナサラダ). Of course, here was Tsukiji. The tuna was not canned !
Asparagus and daikon radish was dressed with tuna’s fat. Sooooo tasty 🙂

ツナサラダ。もちろん自家製のツナです(*´д｀*) ツナの脂をまとった野菜がおいしい～です

Assorted sashimi (刺身盛り合わせ).

まずはお刺身！(･ω･´）

My drink was oolong tea.

左から鰯と鰹。おいしすぎる(*´д｀*)

From left, sardines and bonito.

左が平目、右がイサキ、んでもって手前がコチ

Light is grunt, left is flatfish. And flathead is this side.

Almost all dishes that I had had conger eels !

Assorted tempura (天ぷら盛り合わせ).

天ぷらはシャコと穴子と鯛と茄子・・・とか(ﾉ∀`) 天ぷらおいしすぎ。

Conger eel, sea bream, eggplant, flatfish, mantis shrimps, and so on. Amazing taste. Those were crispy. Especially conger eel and mantis shrimps were excellent !
I liked those tempura in all dishes that I had then.

After finished drinking oolong tea, I felt like drinking something sweet.
Then, Plum wine (梅酒).

甘いものが飲みたくなったので梅酒を・・・

Cold chawanmushi (冷製茶わん蒸し).

夏につめたーい茶わん蒸しヽ(´ー｀)ノ

Wooow ! Cold conger eel was tasty, too 🙂

･･･にも穴子がいっぱい！ 冷たい穴子もおいしいですね～･:*:･(*´∀｀*)ｳｯﾄﾘ･:*:･

Conger eel and eggplant rolls (穴子と茄子のぐるぐる巻き).

We eat it with Zanthoxylum piperitum and shichimi. It looked chewy ? No, it was spongy texture.

Also salads (サラダ) had conger eels !

サラダにも穴子が！穴子尽くし！

Last, we could choice one meal from some meal menus. I wanted to eat conger eel tempura again, so I choiced this.
Aiten-bakashi (会天ばかし).
Baked conger eel and conger eel tempura on the rice.

食事メニューから好きに選べるというので、もう一度天ぷらを食べるべくこれを選択(･ω･´）

Can you see a sand-grass and closed box in front of me ?
He was waiting for one minute. His conger eel was steamed sufficiency in the closed box.

Here, his conger eels looked so soft. Baka-duki (ばか月).

ばか月もおいしそう。１分蒸らして穴子がふっくら(*´д｀*)

Miso soup with bony parts of a fish (あら汁).

あら汁って呼ぶの失礼なくらい身がついてますよ！

Dessert. We could select one from chocolate ice cream and yuzu sorbet.
I chose chocolate ice cream (チョコレートアイス).

柚子シャーベットと選べて、チョコアイスを選択。
