Polepole Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Takamatsu City, Kagawa Prefecture; Representative Director: Takaaki Okajima) will open a new store of its eel specialty restaurant 'Unagi Nosuke' at the Yaesu Underground Mall (Yaesu Chika) directly connected to Tokyo Station on Wednesday, June 10, 2026.
Tokyo Station is a place where Japanese people come and go for business and sightseeing, with time always flowing busily. In such a Yaesu Chika, our store deliberately adopts the theme of 'slow down and relax.' During the day, charge your energy with a carefully prepared eel bowl, and at night, enjoy a casual drink with eel, proposing a new way to enjoy eel that fits into daily life.
Three Features of 'Unagi Nosuke Yaesu Chika Store'
1. A 'Crispy-Fluffy' Texture Created by a Unique Grilling Technique
Our eel is finished with a grilling technique that focuses on 'crispy and aromatic on the outside, fluffy and tender on the inside.' Craftsmen take time and effort to grill carefully, achieving a contrast of aroma and umami that spreads throughout your mouth the moment you take a bite. We deliver a memorable texture that is distinct from the plump eel of the Kanto region.
2. At Night, Transform into an 'Eel Izakaya' with Selected Sake and Accompaniments
This is not just a place to eat and leave. At night, you can enjoy grilled eel (kabayaki and shirayaki) as well as side dishes like uzaku and eel rolls, paired with carefully selected sake or cold beer, making it an 'eel izakaya.' Drop by after work for a sophisticated eel drink at everyday prices.
3. A 'Polepole (Slow)' Space to Forget the Hustle and Bustle of Tokyo Station
The operating company 'Polepole' means 'slowly' in Swahili. In today's world where time performance (Taimu Paformance) is emphasized, and especially at the busiest station in Japan, we want our customers to forget the clock and slowly enjoy their meal and drinks. We welcome you with a comfortable space filled with such thoughts.
