Has anyone tried fugu?

Question

Or does anyone want to?

Answer 1

i have its delicious!

but its expensive

Answer 2

I have. There was a very expensive dinner with business executives in Sakai City, near Osaka, and we went to a special restaurant where the chef is licensed to serve Fugu.

It was served raw, in paper-thin little slices. The slices were so thin you could see through them.

I felt a strange sensation att he tip of my tongue, a bit of numbness.

But the taste what nothing special.

I guess it was very expensive not because of the taste, but because of the experience of playing Russian roullete with your menu.

If I had been spending my own money, I would say it was a waste of hard earned cash.

Answer 3

yes. years ago and it was expensive then no telling how much it cost know. it makes you tingle. it has to be specially prepared by a master chef. (keep in mind that people still die every year from it). maybe try it once just to say you have, however i would do a background check on the chef to see how well trained he is. make sure you are in peak physical form. people with a low immune system should not eat it -any kind of health problems for that matter.  good luck

Answer 4

no isn't that the fish the serve in japan and if it is not prepared just right you could die from eating it?

Answer 5

Yes, I had it in China. One of my relative owns a fish farm that raise nothing but fugu fish. Strangly enough farmed fugu are not toxic.

Answer 6

no
