Lunch...an exercise in perseverance.

Today for lunch we had whole grilled Shishamo.

Wikipedia entry on Shishamo.

It was the 'full of eggs' kind.

I ate them in their entirety...heads and all...there were two of them...it was awful. I'm suffering from Post-fishhead stress disorder. (PFSD)

At least the soup was delicious...niku-jaga. Niku-jaga is a beef stew, similar to an American-style beef stew with potatoes, carrots, onions. But the Japanese one is just a little sweeter and has 'konnyaku' root in it. Konnyaku basically tastes like nothing and has a firm (nearly crunchy?) jello texture.
