**Foodie's Paradise: Must-Try Local Delicacies**


In the major cities of Nagoya and Takayama, located in the central region of Japan, there are several renowned dishes, notably eel rice, tonkatsu pork cutlet, and Hida beef.


This time, I did my homework before I left. I focused on eating at restaurants that were recommended on various websites by both Thai and foreign people. I may not have been able to eat at all of the places I had planned, but I chose restaurants that I think my friends should try and will definitely not be disappointed.

Located near JR Nagoya Station, Nagoya offers a plethora of dining options. To navigate this culinary landscape, I consulted online resources and identified several promising restaurants within the Esca underground mall, conveniently situated next to JR Nagoya Station's Taiko Dori exit (Silver Clock). This vibrant hub boasts an impressive array of culinary delights, ensuring a memorable dining experience.

While Hida beef remains a celebrated dish in Takayama, this sentence explores alternative options for those who do not consume meat or are seeking a change from the ubiquitous beef offerings. The introduction of a renowned raw fish restaurant suggests a diverse culinary landscape catering to various dietary preferences and palates.

This restaurant specializes in fried shrimp, with a menu that primarily features shrimp dishes. The highlight is the "wow"-inducing long, fried shrimp served in a set with scissors for cutting into pieces. The shrimp boasts a firm texture and a satisfyingly crispy exterior. Alternatively, the skewered shrimp with miso sauce offers an equally delicious and delightful experience.

Must-order dish: 35cm long fried shrimp

Average price per person: 2000-2500 yen

Location: Esca underground mall, next to JR Nagoya Station

Real shrimp, real length, real delicious (approximately 1 ruler long)

Skewered and dipped in miso sauce, it's quite delicious.

The atmosphere in front of the shop makes me hungry just looking at it.

They also provided scissors for cutting, making it easier to eat.


2. Yabaton (Fried pork with miso sauce)

**

This is a famous Tonkatsu restaurant in Nagoya with multiple branches. It is easily recognizable by its logo of a pig wearing a red apron. The red miso sauce pork cutlet set menu is delicious, but it can be a bit salty. It is best enjoyed with rice, and you can refill your rice and shredded cabbage as much as you like. If you don't try it, it's like you never came here.

Must-order menu: Miso-glazed pork cutlet (miso katsu)
Average price per person: 1000-1500 yen
Location: Esca underground mall, connected to JR Nagoya Station
Coordinates: https://goo.gl/maps/ZP5fDDYQUfk

The most delicious miso-glazed fried pork rice I've ever had.

Tender, non-chewy pork with a crispy exterior and a soft, juicy interior, generously coated in the restaurant's signature sauce.

The storefront, with its eye-catching logo of a pig wearing overalls, is sure to grab your attention.

A wide variety of delicious Tonkatsu menus to choose from.


3. Legendary Unagi (Eel)

**

Nagoya's Renowned Eel Rice: A Culinary Delight

Nagoya boasts a rich culinary heritage, and among its most celebrated dishes is eel rice, a delicacy enjoyed in various forms. This iconic dish has been a staple in the city for centuries, with numerous restaurants specializing in its preparation.

One of the defining characteristics of Nagoya's eel rice is its versatility. Diners can choose between dry and broth-based variations, each offering a unique taste experience. The dry version features a savory glaze that coats the tender eel, while the broth-based version presents a more delicate flavor profile, with the eel simmered in a flavorful dashi.

No Nagoya eel rice experience is complete without savoring the eel bones. These crispy morsels, often overlooked, add a delightful textural contrast and a subtle smoky aroma to the dish.

With its diverse preparation styles and unique flavors, Nagoya's eel rice stands as a testament to the city's culinary prowess. Whether enjoyed as a casual lunch or a special occasion meal, this dish continues to captivate the palates of locals and visitors alike.

Must-order menu: Unagi Don Set

Location: 10th floor, Matsuzakaya South Building, Yabacho Station
Coordinates: https://goo.gl/maps/jDrL33QQf2q

A large set with flashing lights, enough for 2 people to eat and be very full.

It can be eaten both dry and with soup.

There are actually several branches in front of the shop.

This is an eel-wrapped egg, which is quite unusual.


4. Chicken on rice (Angel's Chicken on rice)

**

Another famous dish of this city is fried chicken, and there are many fried chicken restaurants to choose from. However, this restaurant's specialty is the chicken rice, which is served with a special sauce and topped with a raw egg. I can tell you that you won't know when you've finished it. As for the fried chicken wings, they come in very large pieces, but they are a bit tough and chewy, like they are from a free-range chicken. Paired with beer, I have to say it's a 10-skull experience.

Must-try dishes: Fried chicken wings, Chicken rice

Average price per person: 1000-1500 yen

Location: Esca underground mall, connected to JR Nagoya Station

5. Komeda's Coffee (A Cool Breakfast)

**

**

Nagoya's most famous breakfast menu is red bean toast. I was a little confused at first, wondering if people really eat like this. But I tried ordering it with coffee and it was delicious! It went well together. This restaurant is also a recommended breakfast spot because it has so many delicious menu items.

Must-order menu: Red bean bread, Danish from Shiro-Noir
Average price per person: 800-1200 yen
Location: Esca underground mall next to JR Nagoya Station
Coordinates: https://goo.gl/maps/ZP5fDDYQUfk

This is similar to stew, very delicious when hot, but it might be a bit greasy.

A stylish breakfast set: toast with red beans. This is a popular way to eat breakfast here.

This restaurant is located in the Esca underground mall, connected to JR Nagoya Station. Be prepared for long queues during peak hours.


6. Sengoku-ya (Hida Beef Value Set)

**

When visiting Takayama, indulging in the renowned Hida beef is a must. This restaurant, a favorite among Thai tourists, offers high-quality meat at reasonable prices. The melt-in-your-mouth texture and exquisite flavor of the beef are simply divine. However, it is highly recommended to order the premium cuts for an unforgettable culinary experience. Due to the restaurant's limited capacity, arriving early is advisable to avoid potential waiting times.

Must-try dish: Premium Hida beef

Average price per person: 2,500-3,500 yen

Location: 5-minute walk from JR Takayama Station

So delicious it melts in your mouth.

This is ox tongue, crunchy.

The restaurant is not big, the food is not much, it would be good to go quickly.

The menu offers a variety of dishes, with several standout options, particularly among the Deluxe selections.

The quality of the raw fish is truly remarkable, making this establishment a must-visit for seafood enthusiasts.
