Hamachi Kama - What is it?

What is Hamachi Kama?


Well it's the neck of Hamachi or Young Yellow tail Tuna. It is the most fatty and delicious part of the fish. Imagine dipping in soy sauce and some Kim chi sauce, you will be in heaven as it melts into your mouth.

There are lots of rich, juicy, meat around those bones in the neck of this fish, the crispiness of the skin, depends where you go and how it is prepared makes you want to slap somebody due to the yummy deliciousness.

This is one of the most prized items in sushi bar or restaurant, it’s not on most menus, you will have to request it as most chefs keeps it for themselves for after hours chef suares and drinks!!

My favorite place to eat this fish are Ozumo restaurant in Oakland (http://www.ozumo.com/oakland/) and Sushisamba (http://www.sushisamba.com/)in Miami. If you have not had Hamachi Kama, you have not eaten fish or been to sushi bar..Yummy deliciousness….

Now I have to go meet Brie and Precious for the Le Chef Planning meeting!!!
