SEOUL - Meetings after meeting, we finally had a good dinner at a good sashimi (raw seafood) restaurant few kilometres outsides of Seoul City. It was a good drive but worth the time taken as the restaurant had a homey ambiance - Hari Sen Bon (tel: 031-707-6777, 2577, 1477) is the name of the restaurant. We had plates and plates of sashimi of many types of fishes. The fresh taste of sea urchin does not go well on my palate - it's taste is bitter even after dipping with strong wasabi (also known as Japanese horseradish).
Wasabi is the root of the Japanese horseradish. I have not seen the origination of wasabi - mostly in Japanese restaurant it comes in a small dish of green paste. But I was once introduced by my Japanese partner (Kinya) in Tokyo which he demonstrated to me the art of eating Soba. He took the greenish root (Wasabi) and grated it on surface of a small board made of shark skin. The root eventually became the green wasabi paste.
