By the time you reach Tokyo Babsang, the lively atmosphere of Gwangalli Beach has given way to a sense of calm. The restaurant specialises in two classic Japanese eel dishes: unaju and hitsumabushi. The fare mirrors Chef Tae-woo Kim's dedication to authenticity. Each bite of the thick and chewy eel, which stands out with its inherent flavour, goes perfectly with the accompanying sauce brimming with umami. Its harmony with the glossy steamed rice further heightens the appetite. The chef's respect for authentic recipes, coupled with his sensitive culinary creativity, is what keeps the joint's fare trustworthy.
