Record-breaking heat continues in recent years. With another scorching summer expected this year, the demand is growing for those who want to "gain strength," "enjoy a little luxury," or "casually savor eel."

Daimaru Umeda Store will hold "Una Para!" starting July 15th (Wed) to coincide with Doyo no Ushi no Hi.

\n\On Doyo no Ushi no Hi, enjoy "the perfect eel" for you!/

✔ Eel to enjoy as a reward for yourself, especially now with rising prices.

✔ "Just a little bit of eel" that you can enjoy without overdoing it, especially during the season when appetite decreases due to the heat.

✔ For a stamina boost that's just right for you, whether you're alone or with family.

We offer a diverse range of "eel gourmet" options, from authentic eel bento and grilled eel from specialty eel shops to onigiri, inari sushi, kimbap, and okowa, allowing you to choose according to your mood, budget, and desired quantity.

With the addition of new shops that opened in April, we offer a wide lineup unique to a department store.

Furthermore, "Doyo Mochi," traditionally enjoyed to ward off summer heat, will also be available.
