Uni Uni Uni


Guess what I discovered on the day of my birthday?

I discovered I'm a year older, and many more older years to come. And that I'm only in my 20s, but it feels as if I'm already in my 30s. All the ladies stuff. Duhh.

Ok. No la... I actually discovered that sea urchin sashimis are quite tasty!
Yes! I tried!
But no... no photos to show you.
So I have to steal a picture I googled randomly to show you how it looks like.

Ta-da! We call them 'Uni'.
Yeap, it looks like that - like tao fu pok cut into slices. Haha.

I'll tell you what was my first reaction seeing the bowl of sashimis.
"Eeeyerrrrrrrr"
Yea, that was my response. That is... until I nom-ed them. Haha.

So there, another milestone in my Jap gastronomical journey.

Next in my must-try-before-I-die Jap delight - Fugu sashimi!
You don't get pufferfish sashimi here, because it's almost lethal if it's not prepared properly, so chefs are licensed to be able to prepare fugu sashimis.
Apparently if a human consumes poison from the deadly pufferfish, he can practically die in 10mins.
-_-
So there, my next wishlist. Haha.
