tebasaki, misokatsu, misonikomi, and kishimen.

雞翼, 味噌豬扒, 味噌煮和綦子麵

But perhaps the most well-known dish is hitsumabushi which is fresh water eel, or unagi, that is

但也許最知名的菜是鰻魚飯 這是淡水鰻魚

typically grilled, slathered in a rich, dark sauce, and served over rice.

通常以烤，深色的濃醬塗在鰻魚面再配以白飯

Nagoya's take on this dish is served in a traditional wooden bowl accompanied

名古屋用傳統的木碗奉上

accompanied by a plate of condiments and a pot of tea or broth.

伴隨調味品，茶或肉湯

Diners eat hitsumabushi by splitting the serving of eel into four portions.

最後的一份任您決定

and therefore one of the richest and most powerful castle towns in the entire nation.

因此有全國最富有和最強大的城堡之一

As a result, today the castle grounds are expansive and pleasant to explore.

因此城堡廣場是廣闊而漂亮

Also, although it's a concrete reconstruction, the main keep is quite impressive and there

由於全國各地的宮殿已被摧毀，只保存天守閣

many tourists aren't aware that Japanese castles even had palaces.

許多遊客都沒有意識到日本城堡是有宮殿的
