Last night, I had whale sashimi for the very first time. I have to say, it was quite good. It kind of tasted like a cross between meat and fish, which makes a lot of sense since whales are mammals.

We've only been to one sushi place since we've moved here as its near our apartment, and reasonably priced. Also, the sushi chef seems to get a kick out of me. I think its because we both have a similair hair style (or lack thereof).
Just for fun, I gave him one of my newly created, bilingual Cheap Ass Gamer business cards. As Japanese culture dictates, the dude stared at like long and hard as if it was going to reveal the secret of life, the universe and everything.

Sorry but that doesn't look at all appealing- especially first thing in the A.M. I'm glad you enjoyed it though. I'm sticking to California rolls and when I'm feeling adventurous maybe some tuna.

wow.. that's some dark meat. i would try it in a heartbeat though, if for no other reason than how i instantly fell in love with maguro tuna. i'm sure like a lot of people i was a little hesitant (many years back) with the raw fish but i can honestly say it's very likely my favorite food on earth now.

do you dip that badboy in some wasabi and soy or is their a special sauce with it.

Whale is on the short list of sea life I have yet to devour. I'm down!

Cheapy, can I come live in your closet?

that looks good. It didn't taste oily? I always imagined that whale meat would be oily due to the blubber.

Well... now that you mention it, I have always found your Defend Your Castle high score very arousing...

They must think you're a tourist. "look, he's taking pictures of his food"

since its a Japanese apartment, HE might be living in a closet (i know, i know)

Did it come with mango salsa?

Cheapy has this silly habbit of totally ignoring me when I ask to live with him. I wonder if he just forgets to come back to look at threads.

No I think he's just creep out by that comment. He's probably in the restroom gagging right now.

At least he doesnt need anyone to hold his hair back.

How much was it? I would imagine that whale would be fairly expensive.

Yummm Ch.
I don't think you can have it in USA...don't know for sure.

They banned import of beluga caviar to USA now. I have to call people on Brighton Beach to get some to Kansas. I can't be/live/sleep without caviar.

No, apparently this was from the whale back, which is not as fatty as meat from the whale tail.

I'm not sure, but it was definitely less than $10.

Nah, the sushi chefs at this place know that we live here. Also, the apartment is suprisingly bigger and nicer than our NYC apartment (and the same price).

Somebody hear the wind?

So what kind of whale is that from?

A dead one *rimshot*

I love Sashimi any type you throw in front of me however that just does not look all that great.

The Moby Dick platter looks pretty yummy, what doesn't look good is that bowl of mystery liquid in the corner.

I didn't know it was legal to eat whales, at least it shouldn't be.
