Known as "Houbou" in Japan, the Bluefin Gurnard is a highly prized white fish celebrated for its elegant flavor and striking appearance. With its distinctive "wings" and vibrant red color, it is not only a culinary delight but also a visual centerpiece.
- Flavor Profile: Mildly sweet with a rich, "umami" depth that develops as it matures.
- Texture: Firm and muscular, similar to monkfish or snapper, which holds its shape beautifully when cooked.
- Versatility: While exceptional as sashimi or sushi, its firm flesh is also perfect for aqua pazza, bouillabaisse, pan-searing, or poaching.
- Nutritional Value: A lean, high-protein fish rich in Omega-3 and essential minerals.
- High-end Sashimi platters
- Mediterranean-style seafood stews
- Crispy pan-fried fillets with butter

Dynamic Pricing & Deposit Policy
- Weight Variation: Our specialty items, such as fresh seafood and Wagyu beef, inherently vary in weight.
- Pre-order Deposit: To accommodate these variations, prices are initially set based on the maximum expected weight. A 20% deposit is charged at the time of your pre-order to secure your purchase.
- Final Capture & Remaining Balance: Once the actual weight is confirmed after sourcing and shipping from Japan, we will capture the exact amount for the final, correct price.
- Effective Refund for Excess: This process ensures you only pay for what you receive. Any excess amount from the initial estimate is simply not captured (functioning as an effective refund).
