Busted for serving whale
 

"kujira" sushi

illegal to eat in the USA (as an endangered species)

friggan CHEF leaves the restaurant to get it out of his Mercedes :doh:

just like drugs....on the sly.....

here's the story
Feds charge trendy sushi restaurant for serving whale meat - CNN.com

I wonder how much a pound....do you have to gut them before you market them......how many could I fit in a 20' Seacraft? ;-)

John, your going to have to filet at sea and then make about 130 round trips with the SeaCraft. May as well buy an Ice machine for your garage too:biglaugh::biglaugh:

Some of my buddies did try whale meat one night ashore in Yokosuka,.................. I passed.

Jon - Got the GPS coord.'s for every ice rink in eastern Ma so got the ice covered....maybe one of those "little" 15 ft. guys and I could cut the trips in half...let's see 65 stellwagen trips x a full tank plus 5 jerry jugs =x$. How many marine coolers do you think I'd need? :devil2:
A big plus....the wife went to visit her bro in Yokosuka last summer...maybe a marketing connection. Wonder how much gas the old V4 would burn if I run straight there?

I'd try it.

seal is tasty

I once had whale in Osaka. I didn't know what it was until someone said it was whale half way through dinner. It had an interesting texture. It tasted OK but I didn't think it was anything so great as to be worth big bucks.

I'm very surprised at you guys, don't you watch whale wars?? :hihi:

Oh yea....add a fire hose to the cost of doing business I guess.

i thought it was interesting that the restaurant was at the airport

Baby dolphin taste better.
A candied ginger reduction with lime, caramelized over a piece of broiled flipper is out of this world.
Serve with grilled broccolini and black wild rice.
Finish with a real lemon mousse :drool:
