MK Guide Recommends

Located in the basement of the Sakae Gas Building, Shirakawa offers a quiet space to savor one of Nagoya’s most iconic dishes—hitsumabushi. Charcoal-grilled unagi is served over rice in lacquered bowls, with condiments and broth that invite three distinct eating styles: as-is, with garnishes, or steeped in dashi. Each eel fillet is prepared using traditional binchotan charcoal, yielding crisp skin and rich flavor. The dining area combines dark wood, noren curtains, and calm lighting, drawing both business diners and culinary pilgrims. While the setting is discreet, the shop’s reputation for precise technique and deep umami has earned it national recognition.
