The hottest day of the summer


Japanese people have unique custom to eat eels on the hottest day of the summer, in Japanese "Doyo-no-ushi-no-hi."

Probably, Japanese eat more than 90% of the world eel productions. Most household eat eels in sashimi with wasabi soy sauce, and foreign visitors can enjoy sashimi eels in most sushi restaurants in towns and cities.

Foreign travellers sometimes mistake "kabayaki" is boiled eel. No, that's a propaganda of Benihana. Kabayaki is a boiled snake in truth. Snakes are mostly Mamushi snake, a Japan original viper. You must go to a licensed Kabayaki restaurants to enjoy. Otherwise, you might end up with in a hospital for poison treatment.
