I am pretty sure I
can tell 10+ types of fish apart blindfolded.
Being connected to 水産業 does that to you... But I still didn`t think fugu was worth the cost.
There is tasting good, and tasting good enough to pay incredible amounts of money for. Fugu may be good, but it does not fall into the second category for me. Maybe I`ve just never had the really good stuff, but it has always been good - but normal.
Something that
does amaze me and seem very much worth the incredible cost - crab sashimi from a crab that has just been removed from the water. That has to be one of the most delicate and sublime flavors out there.
