あつた蓬莱軒　本店 (Atsuta Horai-ken Honten)
うまき、￥８４０。
Umaki – Unagi Tamagoyaki. Came steaming hot. Light dashi taste with a hint of sweetness – good!

ひつまぶし、￥２７４０。
Hitsumabushi – basically unagi(eel) on rice. Found a good English review here. The instruction says to divide the bowl into four portions, have the first bowl on its own, add yakumi(spring onion, wasabi and seaweed) to the second bowl, add yakumi and dashi to the third, and for the last bowl have it the way you like it.

I like the second bowl the most – mixing the yakumi and eel and rice. Very delicious!

Part of the menu(J): 1, 2, 3.

みそかつ矢場とん 本店(Miso-Katsu Yabaton Honten)
黒豚ロースとんかつ、￥１６８０。 豚汁。
Kurobuta pork(menu) loin tonkatsu with miso. Tonjiru. I tried the standard Miso-katsu some years ago which comes in a hotplate with miso sauce already added on top of the Katsu. This time I have some special menu using kurobuta pork from Kagoshima, and the miso sauce comes separately. The pork is really quite nice and the coating, not being soaked in sauces, is very crispy. But then I guess it is not as unique as the signature dish.

山本屋本店　エスカ店 (Yamamotoya Honten Esca-ten)
本ずわい蟹と名古屋コーチン入り味噌煮込みうどん、￥２８２５。
Honzuwaigani(crab) and Nagoya kouchin(Nagoya breed chicken) Miso-nikomi Udon. Different branch from the one I tried last time but it is also near Nagoya train station. The crab is a bad choice but the chicken is nice.
