05:50This is great.
05:52Amazing!
05:54Wow!
05:59It's delicious!
06:01Thank you very much!
06:03Of course, the secret of popularity is not just the appearance!
06:08By grilling it with a net,
06:10a whole eel is served in a fluffy and tender state!
06:17On top of the four bowls of rice soaked in the sauce,
06:22put three large rolled eggs
06:27and a large eel to cover it, and it's done!
06:33It's a lot of volume, so it's recommended to share it with more than three people!
06:39Are you eating eggs?
06:41Yes!
06:42Let's eat!
06:43Don't you eat eggs together?
06:45Don't you make it an eel-egg?
06:47Is it delicious?

07:21After this!
07:23There's a lot in it!
07:24It's true! Amazing!
07:27Galsone is also very impressed!
07:29What is the seasonal ingredient hidden in the eel?
07:33It's one of the top three eel dishes I've ever eaten in my life!
07:37Really?
07:41The total weight is 1 kg!
07:43Now it's boiling!
07:45The new specialty of Kawagoe, the eel kakehashi!
07:51Galsone finished eating half of it early, but here...
07:57Papa, eat it!
07:58Papa, eat it!
07:59It's better to eat this!
08:01This is an eel bowl for eating and walking!
08:04Eel cup!
08:07Actually, just now...
08:10What are you going to do, Papa?
08:13But look at this!
08:15This eel cup is 900 yen!
08:17It's amazing!
08:18It's good that you can eat it for less than 1,000 yen!
08:20Then, can I have one of this eel cup?
08:23Yes, of course!
08:26It's delicious!
08:27The sauce is very strong!
08:30It's true!
08:31It goes well with rice!
08:32It goes well with sake, too!
08:35It's delicious!
08:37Now, the eel bowl for eating and walking is a trend in Kawagoe!
08:45Originally, there is a culture of eating and walking,
08:48and Kawagoe is famous for eel!
08:53But why are there so many eel restaurants in Kawagoe?
09:00There is no eel restaurant in Umi or Saitama prefectures,
09:02but there is one in Edo period.
09:04People used to catch eels and eat them for a long time.
09:08That's why Kawagoe became famous.
09:11In Edo period, there was a culture of eating and walking of pigs and cows.
09:16In Kawagoe, which is surrounded by three rivers,
09:19people used to catch eels from beautiful rivers and eat them as a precious protein.
09:26That's why there are many delicious eel restaurants
09:31such as Shiniseya, which has been loved for more than 200 years since the Edo period,
09:34and famous restaurants that serve various eel dishes.
09:41I started this restaurant because it looked good on Instagram.
09:49Did you aim for it?
09:51Yes, I did.
09:52I see.
09:54I was right.
09:56It's amazing.
09:59They grill eel just before serving.
10:03It looks delicious.
10:08It's interesting.
10:10Is it delicious?
10:11Yes.
10:14There is only a little eel left in 7 minutes.
10:22It's delicious.
10:25It took me about 40 minutes to eat it.
10:30It took me about 6 and a half minutes.
10:32I didn't notice it.
10:37Joren also eats eel at a surprising speed.
10:46Now, it's his turn.
10:51It's interesting, isn't it?
11:00First of all, he flattens his dad's eel cup.
11:06It's delicious.
11:11It's almost gone.
11:13It's really delicious.
11:16And then...
11:19It's the last one.
11:29Did you eat it?
11:30Yes.
11:33It's finished.
11:35He ate 1 kg of eel in just 10 minutes.
11:40It looked interesting.
11:43I've never eaten such a big eel in my life.
11:49I'm very happy.
11:51It was very delicious.
11:52When I first saw it, I didn't know what to do.
11:56But, he ate it.
12:02Next, they came to a popular tourist spot in Kawagoe.
12:07It's a confectionery shop.
12:10They're going to look for the next shop while strolling around the town with more than 30 confectioneries.
12:22I don't know what to do.
12:23He's my husband.
12:24I'm her husband.
12:26I'm sorry.
12:27I don't know what to do.
12:29Of course.
12:31I was too excited in front of the camera.
12:33He's my husband.
12:36This strawberry is very delicious.
12:37What's that?
12:38It's an angel.
12:39It's a strawberry candy.
12:41You can buy it next to the stall.
12:44It's an angel candy.
12:46It's a new type of fruit candy with a crispy texture of a thread-like candy.
12:53This is what everyone had.
12:56It's a black sugar stick.
12:57It's amazing.
12:59Everyone has it.
13:02This is a famous snack of Kashiya Yokocho.
13:05It's a huge snack.
13:07The longest one is 95 centimeters in length.
13:10It's the longest one in Japan.
13:12There are a lot of people who enjoy sightseeing with a long candy on this street.
13:18And
13:22What's that candy?
13:24Everyone is buying that candy.
13:26What kind of candy is it?
13:28It's a candy.
13:30It's fun to eat as a child.
13:32You can inflate it by yourself.
13:33I see.
13:34It looks like glass.
13:37I didn't know that.
13:39I didn't know that.
13:41I want to come here again.
13:43It looks delicious.
13:46I want to eat everything I see.
13:50Why do people buy sweets?
13:52I don't know.
13:55What do you want to eat next?
13:57What do you want to eat next?
13:58I want to eat eel.
13:59Again?
14:00I can eat eel again.
14:01Do you eat eel again?
14:04What's next?
14:06It's a specialty of Kawagoe.
14:08It's been loved for 40 years.
14:11What is this delicious eel?
14:16It looks good.
14:17It's amazing.
14:18It looks very good.
14:20My father knows this place.
14:21Yes, here.
14:22Here?
14:23Let's go here.
14:25I'm looking forward to it.
14:26Are you looking forward to it?
14:27Yes.
14:30Hello.
14:31Excuse me.
14:32Hello.
14:33Excuse me.
14:35I heard that you can eat eel.
14:38Can I eat eel?
14:39Yes, please.
14:42They came to an eel shop that is very popular on holidays.
14:47It's called UNAKKO.
14:49Many customers order eel here.
14:53It's a rare eel.
14:57Excuse me.
14:59Here you are.
15:02Is it different from the usual eel soup?
15:05I think so.
15:07I think it's only here.
15:10Only here?
15:12I'm looking forward to it.
15:13I'm looking forward to it.
15:21Excuse me.
15:22I'm looking forward to it.
15:25Can I open it?
15:26Yes.
15:28Here you are.
15:32This is eel.
15:35It looks like a normal eel.
15:38What are the characteristics of this eel?
15:43There are a lot of potatoes in it.
15:45That's amazing.
15:47That's amazing.
15:48There are a lot of potatoes in it.
15:52What?
15:55The specialty of this shop is potatoes.
15:59There are a lot of sweet potatoes in it.
16:07I'm looking forward to it.
16:08Let's eat it.
16:11The eel looks delicious just by touching it.
16:14Just by touching it.
16:17I understand.
16:18I understand that the eel is delicious just by touching it.
16:20I see.
16:22I understand that the eel is delicious just by touching it.
16:25It looks delicious.
16:29There are a lot of sweet potatoes in it.
16:31I'll eat it.
16:37How is it?
16:41It's hot.
16:42The eel is very delicious.
16:44It's very delicious.
16:45It's fluffy.
16:46The eel is fluffy.
16:48The eel is fluffy and melts in my mouth.
16:50That's amazing.
16:51The sweet potatoes are also fluffy.
16:57The eel is also fluffy.
17:00It's delicious.
17:01The sweet potatoes are softer than I expected.
17:03They go well with each other.
17:07The eel is big, but I don't like it at all.
17:10The balance of sweet potatoes is good.
17:14It's delicious.
17:16This is a sweet potato porridge.
17:18I steamed rice with sweet potatoes.
17:23I add the secret sauce that has been passed down for 40 years.
17:31I put the eel on top of it.
17:34This is complete.
17:39I put the hot sweet potato rice in the eel.
17:43You can enjoy the hot and creamy eel stew.
17:49Papa orders the normal size, which is a little easier to find than Galsone's.
17:59Ta-da!
18:01I can see the potatoes.
18:04The size of the eel is just a little.
18:07But it's enough for a normal potato stew.
18:10Wow!
18:13I thought it was more like a potato, but it's not.
18:18It's good, isn't it?
18:19It's really good.
18:24Mmm!
18:26It's good!
18:27Is it good?
18:29I just ate a kilo of eel stew, but I can't stop eating!
18:37Is it good?
18:38It's really good.
18:40It's so good, I'm scared.
18:43It's one of the top three delicious eels I've ever eaten in my life.
18:47Really?
18:48It's really good.
18:50How did you come up with the combination of sweet potato and eel?
18:56Both of them are famous for their skin.
19:00They're surrounded by skin.
19:04The sweet and salty taste of the eel and the sweetness of the sweet potato go well together.
19:12I think it's true.
19:13It's a luxurious combination of two famous eels.
19:19And you can only taste it here.
19:23It's really good.
19:26Kawagoe is also famous for its sweet potato.
19:31Kawagoe is famous for its sweet potato because it was shipped to the city of Edo by boat in the Edo period.
19:41Currently, a wide variety of sweet potato products are on sale in the city.
19:48Among them, there are the best-selling sweets that won first place in the three categories of sweet potato.
20:00In addition, there is a secret to eel.
20:05Why is this eel so fluffy?
20:08I'm using a new eel today.
20:11A new eel?
20:12Yes.
20:14A new eel is an eel that grows faster than a normal eel.
20:22Usually, a new eel can be eaten in about two years.
20:26But, a new eel can be eaten within a year.
20:33It's soft and fluffy.
20:36When you eat it, it falls apart in your mouth.
20:43It's said that eel is one of the most expensive eel because it's not born unless the elements of coincidence overlap, such as the individual difference and the farming environment.
20:56Eels are often ordered in large quantities.
21:01I see.
21:02Yes.
21:06Many customers come to the shop every day in search of the food collaborated by the famous Kawagoe.
21:14The sweet potato is sweet and the sauce is sweet.
21:21It has a strange taste.
21:25It's delicious.
21:27It's different from eel.
21:32It's particularly delicious.
21:37I like both of them.
21:40It's good to be able to eat them all at once.
21:44Galsone eats a lot of eel.
21:48The sweet potato is interesting.
21:52I think it's just right.
21:54It's not full, but it has a good texture.
22:02It's delicious.
22:05It's good to walk around the city and eat eel.
22:13It's really delicious.
22:14Are you listening to me?
22:16I said it all at once.
22:19It's delicious.
22:22I'll definitely come here with my family.
22:24I want my son to eat eel.
22:27Children love eels.
22:32I love eels.
22:34I love eels.
22:36My mother and son love eels.
22:39We often eat eel together.
22:44I love eels so much that I want to go to eel.
22:48You and your son go to eel.
22:52He takes out a spoon and eats eel.
22:58I can eat eel.
23:01It's so delicious.
23:02That's great.
23:03You can eat eel.
23:06I can eat eel.
23:08It's so delicious.
23:10Can I take this?
23:11He eats his father's eel.
23:16I think this eel is delicious.
23:26It's delicious.
23:27Is it delicious?
23:30Eel is the best.
23:36It's not just delicious.
23:39It's really delicious.
23:42And.
23:47Thank you for the meal.
23:49After eating 1 kg of eel, he ate all the eels.
23:55How was it?
23:58It was the best.
24:00I'm happy.
24:01Eels are delicious no matter where you eat them.
24:06When I eat such delicious food, I feel sorry for the children.
24:10I understand.
24:11I feel guilty.
24:12Do you understand?
24:13I understand very much.
24:14The children will ask me what I ate today.
24:16That's right.
24:17Can I say that I haven't eaten anything?
24:20You haven't eaten anything.
24:21You haven't eaten anything.
24:22That's a lie.
24:23I can't say that.
24:24You have to say that.
24:25Let's go together again.
24:27That's right.
24:28This time, they enjoyed eel dishes.
24:33Everyone, please go to Kawagoe in Koedo this weekend.
