Kill me...I'm starving...yum. Love 'em both. There's a sushi joint near us that does a 'Kamikaze Shooter'...I think that's what they call it anyway....oyster, uni, quail egg & sake. I haven't had it yet but I will. I just love uni plain for the most part but if I'm feeling like grossing out the other patrons, I'll slap that quail egg on top.

Yeah, I likened it to eating cooked beef for some reason...I was 11 so what did I know but I remember it tasted (to me) like cooked steak. I'm not sure why it tasted cooked when it wasn't. Maybe because of the lean thing; makes sense it'd be more like venison, not that I had had that yet at 11 but I love it now.

Sorry to run over 'ya Ian...
