Are you sure it wasn't whale tube steak?
Top of it's back !
And there are many types of whales that are hunted for human consumption.
I'll go back to the shop and find out which one this was !
It will take a few days because this particular shop is part of the biggest fish market in the WORLD , in Tokio and only opens occasionally on fixed days in Hyogo's Kobe Hanshin department store.
That's 2 hours drive from where we live ! ! !
Chance has it that we're planning to visit a particular restaurant that is only open 2 hours every day !
For lunch only . . . and only for unagi "eal" !
Name is Aoiagy.
I'll post their meishi (visiting card) !

And even more occasionally in Ikeda's Hankyu dep. store !
Thats 45 minutes to an hour from where we live !
