There were only 3 of us at the hostel brave enough for this endeavor. So we set out with a couple of choices into the Tokyo night. Most restaurants that serve fugu have them on display, or they have a plastic one hanging over the entrance to the shop. We opted for the first one as we could choose our dinner for the night. After taking a look at our chefs special license to be able to serve fugu we say...... Why not.
It's a bit more chewy than I thought, but it did have a good taste. We had two types of fugu, one was raw sashimi style and the other was deep fried. Both were really really good.
So I took down the worlds most deadly fish... now what? Only time will tell.
Facts - 1) In Tokyo, a bicycle is faster than a car for most trips of less than 50 minutes!
2) The king of hearts is the only king without a mustache on a standard playing card!
Cheers

Why, my dear, would you eat a fish that can kill you??? What is the chef was having a bad day. Does the meal come with an insurance policy or does he just get a slap on the wrist? Crazy D...knew it then and know it now!! When I said be an adventurous eater, I ment with foot that won't kill you.
