Now living in Austin, Sun is flying in fish and delicacies from Japanese fish markets namely the Tsukiji Market, the biggest wholesale fish and seafood market in the world. The results are beautiful and delicious Japanese fusion dishes such as Tuna with Goat Cheese (pictured below), Wild Game Gyoza, Baby Tako with Chile Mango Salsa, and live fish. Yes, live fish.
