Whale Meat 
Special thanks to the deli staff at the ICA store on Aker Brygge for going way past the call of duty and preparing this delicious meal of grilled whale.

transpixel Whale 01:  this is what the piece looked like at the deli.  Notice how rich the red colour is, much richer than beef.  This piece became four very nice steaks later. transpixel

transpixel Whale 02:  grilled, rare centre... very tasty.  It's softer than filet mignon, juicy, and only a tiny hint of seafood flavour.  Not gamey at all. transpixel

transpixel Whale 03:  kujira nigiri.  Prepared in a similar manner to katsuo (bonito):  grilled with a raw centre.  Very tender, with a sharper flavour than the "cooked" steak from the previous image.  I couldn't resist and had two orders. transpixel
