Anin tofu. Yum! Still pretty much afraid of trying out Fugu unless I've got my life partner trying it together with me ^^; @Danny, Do you surf?
(ID #65855) Posted on 2007/12/04 01:13
Hey Danny I don't know about raw beef, it just seems kinda wrong to put raw meat in your mouth. But that Fubu... I'm tempted, I've been told it's not really all that tasty and like you say feels like rubber. Anyway great blog as always, hope your next week is even better. I look forward to your next stormtrooper dance video, hmm is there anyway you can fit a santa hat on that helmet ^^

I have had raw beef during one of my trips to Japan. I didn't think so much about the meat being raw, only of the texture and flavor, which surprised me at the time.

Raw beef isn't that bad. I've had alot worse.
(ID #65860) Posted on 2007/12/04 01:49
kobe beef, thinly sliced and boiled = yummmmmmmy!
(ID #65861) Posted on 2007/12/04 01:49
no raw meet for me, thank you very much, but please do keep the posts coming, it's really a pleasure.
(ID #65865) Posted on 2007/12/04 02:06
I tried raw meat, but it was a... arabic dish, turkish dish, dunno. They mix it with soy or something. But I had raw horse meat and some little fish you eat while still alive... Sushi restaurant on Shibuya 109... you gotta taste that Danny, and post some videos and pics later here so people will be completely disgusted. XD Never as bad as people thinks. I liked the horse sushi and the jumping little fishes better than... the raw shrimp sushi.

I heard the only selling point of fugu is simply because its poisonous and you need it to be handled by certified chef. Hence, poison + japanese suicidal tendency = profit!
(ID #65867) Posted on 2007/12/04 02:31
Tofu and ice cream yes, raw egg with meat no.
(ID #65868) Posted on 2007/12/04 02:33
I've tried Fugu and found it pretty unique. I quite like the rubbery and slightly crunchy texture. I also love raw beef and egg, I prefer my beef as bloody as possible ;)
(ID #65870) Posted on 2007/12/04 03:01
Hmm, I'll try anything once. Hopefully more with Fugu, though once may permanently be the case.
(ID #65871) Posted on 2007/12/04 03:04
Mmmmmm, raw beef, raw egg, fugu; what's not to love lol ^^. Still need to try fugu myself.

Hmm... Intersting to see that japanese eat raw meet too. I've had quite a few, it's actually a fancy french meal called :'steak tartare' that involves top quality raw meat, an egg, capres and whatever else you can think of adding.
(ID #65874) Posted on 2007/12/04 03:22
raw beef, no. But I tried raw chicken before in Japan.

Raw eggs, check, Raw Fish, eaten that, Raw beef, yep, (tho never with raw egg). Would have to try that one. And ending with joke... What are a fugu victims last words... 'Ummm that was tasty....URKKKKK!!!' ;-)
(ID #65879) Posted on 2007/12/04 04:28
Isn't that like really bad for you? Raw Beef and Raw Eggs? But I do suppose you get more vitamins and nutrients from raw food (thanks Moyashimon!). Don't think I'll try Fugu just yet, too many stories have scared the shit out of me. Oooooo can't wait for the new GT-R (one of my dream cars is a Gt-r 32), freaking $80,000 over here and a Nissan sales person told me they were only going to have 2 for sale at first. Oh and my friend is from Chiba, looks very nice there.
(ID #65880) Posted on 2007/12/04 04:28
i wonder if its safe to eat raw beef like that.. then again they probably clean it like how they do with sashimi
(ID #65881) Posted on 2007/12/04 04:29
You're a braver man than I for trying Fugu. I don't care how experienced or qualified the person preparing it is, I won't eat something that risky. Now, the raw beef and egg I suppose I'd be willing to try. Nothing against it. And that tofu... Why does Japanese food have to look so good? Anyways, I know you can't do these every week, but I am definitely interested in seeing another.
(ID #65882) Posted on 2007/12/04 04:32
Danny-O, awesome post. Like how this week showed less familiar territory with a more personal touch. Likey raw beef, although it sometimes doesn't agree with my stomach afterwards. I'm not a teenager anymore. Don't see the lovely Mirei-san sitting in her chair in your office. WTF? Ja!
(ID #65884) Posted on 2007/12/04 05:34
i see most of the comments are about the food, seems people are really interested in Japanese food. this new series is very good danny, it's very informative and would save us a lot of trouble when we visit japan. keep up the good work. ps. you sure do have a lot of dinner meetings
(ID #65885) Posted on 2007/12/04 05:40
Always eating you are, Danny.
(ID #65887) Posted on 2007/12/04 05:57
Danny, Go for a bigger Screen! Projectors have their advantages, but I have to say they allow less of an option of moving around later. I have a 57" screen, its ALMOST big enough, but I know that size is optimized based on distance from the screen. What brand are you thinking of getting? I cut a slice of steak once and ate it raw because I was curious. Ever since then I have always preferred rare steak and beef. Bloody is good. I think Im a carnivore.

Raw meat? Well, if your digestive system does not look for trouble and that bacteria don't have a party in your body afterwards (post-meal cramps, etc.), why not? As for fugu, it's the same as for caviar... I truly am not eager to try it, I also don't see the interest in trying it. I don't think I would ever invest in that anyway or have any opportunity to try. All's well in any case. I think I could not eat raw beef without problems as my darned digestive tract is quite a snob and has been more annoying with the years (Hopefully I don't suffer from any intolerances with that). Thanks a lot for that part of yourselves you transmitted to me, dear parents! ;)

(ID #65897) Posted on 2007/12/04 07:56
raw beef + raw egg = nom nom nom tried it and i love the combination ^____^ i haven't tried fugu though lolz
(ID #65902) Posted on 2007/12/04 09:09
Raw beef and egg is called in Poland tatar, it's served with onion and pickled cucumber. Quite normal here, and yes, eated it couple times, still alive as you see ;) http://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grafika:Tatar-1.jpg I too need new TV, courious how much cost new Pioneer Kuro 608 or 508 in Japan?

I think this will be a regular I'll be looking forward to reading each week here!! ^___^ Had raw beef or beef sashimi a while back. Looks like you're having some sort of (Korean?) hot stone pot where you mix the raw beef and egg in it to slightly cook it? Looks yummy. I've always wondered how much time do you spend dusting all your figures?!? Touch screen mini Mac coming soon for reals?!? O____o I think I'd be more scared of trying fugu than raw beef... What kind of commercial will you be in with Weiden & Kennedy? Or will it be for a top secret viral??

Those vending machines are the ones by the Brunswick bowling alley in Ikebukuro aren't they? There are a LOT there.

Raw beef and egg? add some shaved pear in there and you have a korean dish! The name escapes me at the moment, but it is rather nice! so, yeah, I've had that before. I'd be interested in having some fugu but I'm sure the availability and price would be prohibitive at best!!

(ID #65920) Posted on 2007/12/04 12:54
Been in Japan 5 years but have never tried Fugu... I like the raw beef + egg! Have it every chance I get.
(ID #65927) Posted on 2007/12/04 13:43
seems like majority of the comments are about raw beef. i like beef but never tried it raw. ('~')
looking forward to next week's article.^^;
(ID #65931) Posted on 2007/12/04 13:59

(ID #65943) Posted on 2007/12/04 15:00
See, now that sounds good. Steak tartar. Trust the Swiss to come up with something very tasty.
(ID #65946) Posted on 2007/12/04 15:35
Off type question LOL, what mech is that shown in the McDonalds pic? I can't figure it out if its from Super Robot Taisen, Armored Core or something else.
(ID #65950) Posted on 2007/12/04 16:52
@marvin: You're right the stuff you're talking about is mett, it tastes reeaally good so I think I'd try out raw beef in Japan too ^^ @Danny: I really enjoy this series, keep it up!

Ooh, I love that picture of the train carriages. Since I'm slightly obsessed with trains and subways, I love it. Didn't notice that board before in Tokyo, but I probably wouldn't have known what it was for, but it's so useful. They really think it through, and since the Yamanote line is the busiest line in the world, I'm not surprised they do something like this. I'd love to have a bigger resolution shot of that ;p

Nice, keep up the good work. This series is interesting stuff. Never tried raw beef, but if its as good as you say it is then i might try it when i go to Japan.
(ID #66220) Posted on 2007/12/07 01:26
I saw kobe beef being served as "sushi styled". Always wanted to try when I was in Japan, but places serve this kinda dish usually very expensive.
