Ushi-no-hi

Today, July 29th is called 'Ushi-no-hi' (day of the ox in midsummer during the hottest season), and many Japanese people eat grilled eel on this day because it's said that eel is a very nutritious food and very good to eat to energize you up during this tiring, hot season.
You can see a lot of grilled eel sold at supermarkets. The mouthwatering odor definitely makes you buy some!

Have you ever eaten grilled eel in Japan? Or do you wanna try some?
