UnaUna, an eatery that specialises in grilled Japanese eel, has soft-launched its new outlet at VivoCity on Mar. 15.

It is their third outlet, after their pre-existing Suntec and Bugis+ outlets.

The brand will also release eight outlet-exclusive unagi dishes.

Eight outlet-exclusive dishes

UnaUna freshly grills all their unagi over charcoal with a double-dipping technique, basting them with special in-house sauce and grilling over controlled temperature twice for about ten minutes.

Diners at the new VivoCity outlet can check out the eight outlet-specific dishes featuring their premium-quality eels, including roll sushi.

• Una Una Kaisen Roll Sushi (S$24.80)

• Unagi Kaisen Roll Sushi (S$19.80)

• Unagi Ikura Don (S$32.80)

• Unagi Hokkaido Pork Hitsumabushi (S$22.80) featuring chargrilled Hokkaido pork belly paired with signature unagi glazed with UnaUna's secret sauce

• Unagi Salmon Hitsumabushi (S$26.80)

• Unagi Kagoshima Beef Jyu (S$32.80) featuring Kagoshima’s beef ribeye

In addition, the VivoCity outlet will also be rolling out an Unagi + Uni and Unagi Mentaiko Don in the near future.

Dining space

The dining space at this outlet is inspired by an izakaya with wood and Japanese-style decór elements.

A total of 70 seats (48 inside and 22 alfresco) are available, and the eatery can accommodate around 50 people with safe distancing measures in place.

Unagi hitsumabushi

For the uninitiated, UnaUna's signature dish is the unagi hitsumabushi.

A speciality dish from Nagoya, unagi hitsumabushi comprises steamed Japanese rice, barbecue grilled eel fillet, thick, sticky, sweet and savoury sauce, and assorted condiments and garnishes.

You can check out the specific way of eating the dish whereby the dish is divided into quarters:

• First quarter is eaten as it is
• Second quarter with accompanying condiments
• Third quarter with condiments and clear broth
• Fourth quarter is eaten in the preferred manner amongst the previous three
