It's delicious! Remember to thaw it in the refrigerator 24 hours before eating. After opening, pat it dry with paper towels to remove any blood, then slice it and it's ready to eat!

I got it for $29.99 on sale. It was my first time buying sashimi and cutting it myself. I thawed it naturally from the freezer to the refrigerator the night before, and the next day I had fresh, perfectly cooked sashimi – even better value and tastier than most Japanese restaurants in the US! The fat was evenly distributed, with a slightly sweet flavor. One fish is enough for one person, enough for three meals, paired with champagne or sake – a great deal. I'll definitely buy it again when it's on sale!
Xs
The weight is really hit or miss.. It's my first order.. I thought it was big so I thought "wow~~" but it was smaller than what was listed. ㅜㅜ I haven't tried it yet but I hope it's delicious so I forget about it~ But the item as a whole is smaller than in the picture. Comparing it to Hmart...
