Basashi is wonderful. Dip in soy with a little ginger and green onion. Take it from an ex-pat in Japan, this meet is some of the best ever. You’ll wonder why we don’t eat it more often.

Horse meat sashimi? I will need to check that out. So interesting! Plus I will try anything once, especially if it is in sashimi form.

My only experience with horse meat was during my time in Honduras where we would have it like steaks. Nothing raw, but that is definitely something I would be interested in trying.

That sushi looks fantastic by the way. Great pictures!

You’re the second blogger this week to talk about horse meat! Dana McCauley also talked about it on her blog yesterday. I’m not sure if I would like it…especially raw. But it’s kind of interesting with different cultures using different meats. I mean, who decided what meat is considered normal to eat and what isn’t? If one meat is acceptable shouldn’t ALL meat be? Just a thought…

My Italian pal Bruno had us over for dinner a while ago. First course Carpaccio “di carne di Cavallo”. No big deal for me, we ate it frequently in Austria, but for my Calgary born wife it was tough.

Wow. When I read “Horse sashimi” I didn’t expect it to be horse sashimi.
Interesting stuff! Your posts certainly live up to the name of your blog.

Yum! I’ve been drooling over your photos from this place ever since you posted them on Flickr. We have family in Vancouver (seriously, what Chinese-Canadian doesn’t?) so I’ll have to mention this place the next time we visit.

I definitely want to try horse, but after reading Elyse Sewell (of ANTM fame)’s experience with dog meat on her blog (http://elysesewell.livejournal.com/82187.html) I don’t think I’d be as game to try dog.

I’ve always wanted to try horse meat. Now I know I can get it in sashimi form, at a place that is relatively accessible for me. (I have family in White Rock) I’ll have to go there.

I’m becoming a huge fan of your blog. So glad I found it.
