To combat the heat it is customary to eat eel on 'doyō ushi-no-hi' (土用丑の日 'midsummer day of the ox' - July 26th this year).
Narumi-mochi Honten's (鳴海餅本店) 'unagi-manju' (うなぎ万寿) is an adorable alternative to gobbling up real Japanese eel (an endangered species).

'Unagi-manju' (うなぎ万寿) is only sold for a very limited time around 'doyō ushi-no-hi', so you have to hurry to catch this unusual sweet😋 🙇♂️https://www.narumi-mochi.jp/ #鳴海餅本店 #鳴海餅 #Kyoto #京都 #Japan #eel #うなぎ #うなぎ万寿 #土用丑の日
