Unagiya Ichinoji, Robertson Quay

Unagiya Ichinoji, seiro mushi

Unagiya Ichinoji (#01-05 Riverside Village Residences, 30 Robertson Quay, tel : +65 6732 1970) is one of a couple of unagi-ya that opened up after the Man Man phenomenon. From what I gathered, these guys were supposed to be more affordable because they used eels that are from Indonesia rather than the more expensive Japanese variety which Man Man uses. 

To be honest, I couldn't tell the difference. It also wasn't much cheaper than Man Man as well. I suppose the real draw was that there wasn't a queue at all at this corner of Robertson Quay in the weekends. We skipped the hitsumabushi for their gozen bento and the seiro mushi. The latter featured steaming of the grilled eel with the rice. I like them much better straight off the grill.
