so what does it actually taste like? has anyone tried the fish - can you compare the texture and taste to any others?

I wouldn't know; I wouldn't dare eat it.
Pay to possibly be poisoned? Not this cat. Nope. Noooo thank you very much. No siree!
But other sushi - anytime!

I think I may have had it. I *think*. While living in Japan, I was taken out one night and I'm pretty sure fugu was on the menu. The thing is, I was a bit drunk and my memory has faded. I know that it's expensive, and usually served as a platter of white sashimi (raw fish) slices, neatly arranged on a plate/dish. There was also one other fugu-related thing I had (a soup, I think) that had a fugu fin in it that made your lips go numb...

I t does sound a bit like the real thing... Traditionally, fugu is served as a mnu, so I guess it could be that. And if you were a bit short on memory - well, that, too, could be fugu-induced.
Happy to see that you survived!
