Robata, renowned for its culinary excellence and dedication to authentic Japanese flavours, this unique fine-dining Japanese restaurant is proud to present an exquisite delicacy that epitomises the essence of luxury dining – “Unagi” the Japanese eel. Unveiling a rare and delectable treat, Robata sets a new standard in the world of luxury dining with this exceptional offering.
The Japanese eel, a treasure of the ocean and river, constitutes less than 0.3% of the eel supply in Japan, making it an extraordinary find. In stark contrast to its farmed counterparts or eels sourced from other countries, the Japanese wild eel boasts a much richer Umami taste, a hallmark of premium quality and unique culinary experience.
Sample the delicacies of Unagi Butter (Grilled Unagi sushi with fullness butter flavour), Unaju (Grilled Unagi Eel from Japan, Grilled with Sweet Sauce and Plated with Rice), Unagu Bo Zushi (Grilled Eel on Top of Sushi Rice Flavoured with Japanese Pepper, Sansho), Uzaku (Grilled Eel with Tosazu Vinegar), Unagi Tare Yaki (Grilled Large Eel from Japan, with Sweet Sauce), Unagi Shira Yaki (Grilled Large Eel from Japan, best enjoyed with Salt and Wasabi), Unatama Roll (Rolled Scrambled Egg and Cucumber with Sliced Grilled Eel on top).
One of the key differentiators lies the eel’s skin-remarkably thinner than farmed varieties, enhancing the flavours when cooked to perfection. Robata masters the art of grilling with the revered “Bincho” charcoal, raising the cooking temperature to an impressive 1000 degrees. This allows the Umami flavours to be fully retained during the brief yet intense cooking process.
What makes Robata’s culinary treasures even more extraordinary is the eel’s natural diet in the ocean and river, enriched with superior nutrition.
The rarest of treats awaits lucky diners as Robata occasionally offers the elusive Sea Eel, sourced directly from Toyosu market in Japan. A delicacy unparalleled in rarity, the Sea Eel’s exceptional taste stems from its ocean-dwelling lifestyle and a diet that includes crab, shrimp, and other ocean delicacies.
Embodying a cherished cultural tradition in Japan, the eel holds significance as a summer delicacy. Renowned for its high nutritional value-packed with protein, vitamins, and even calcium-it provides the stamina and energy needed to combat the scorching summer heat.
Treat yourself to the finest, nutrient-rich eels this summer, to beat fatigue and defy the signs of aging. Experience the epitome of luxury while keeping your well-being at the forefront, this summer.
