034_fugu


Fugu in Japanese means puffer fish or blowfish and also a Japanese delicacy prepared from the raw meat of the fish. Since internal organs and skin of fugu are poisonous, only specially licensed chefs are allowed to sell the dish to the public. There are a number of edible species in the market. This one in the picture is called Torafugu or Tiger Blowfish.
