Live Tanks...

One of my most pleasurable dining experiences was at this bar/restaurant in Ropongi area of Tokyo. We ordered one of the Tile fish from the tanks and it was prepared right in front of us... usuzukuri style. Which means it was cut paper-thin. It was amazing!!! I wasn't the least bit hungry but this sashimi was so good... I could not resist eating it. It costs about a hundred dollars per fish... but what an experience. I have yet to come across anything in NYC that comes even close to this.
