No, its coming straight from Japan. The beef has an amazing amount of marbeling , and is supposed to have the texture of fois gras. DO a search on google for some pix. The owner of our meat perveyor got a sample last week and said he was floored. It is so expensive because of the cost of land and grain in japan. Ive had domestic wagyu which is good but not overly impressive for $49 a lb tenderloin. Ill try to take some pix when we get it in next week. This isnt going on the menu, just for the owner and his friends. We do have $30 a lb buffalo motzerella on the menu though for tomatoe motz salad.
