     根(ね)がうなぎ屋(や)だし、ウナギの焼(や)き方(かた)に一説(いっせつ)持(も)っているくらいだから、やっぱり蒲焼(かばやき)が食(た)べてもらいたかろう。私(わたし)自身(じしん)も、大阪(おおさか)の蒲焼(かばやき)が食(た)べて見(み)たい。

     Ne ga unagi-ya da shi, unagi no yaki kata ni issetsu motte iru kurai dakara, yappari kabayaki ga tabete morai takarō. Watashi jishin mo, ōsaka no kabayaki ga tabete mitai.

     Since at root it is an eel shop, so they have an idea of how to grill eels, I suppose we should eat kabayaki after all. For me personally, I want to try Osaka kabayaki.
