Description

Frequented by celebrities, the popular Torafugu-tei franchise specializes in ‘fugu,’ or pufferfish, an expensive Japanese delicacy. It doesn’t just serve any pufferfish, but the ‘torafugu’ (tiger pufferfish) — one of the most valuable species of fugu eaten in Japan. Pufferfish is said to have a delicate, subtle flavor, belying the fact that it’s — infamously — highly poisonous. The fish contains lethal amounts of a poison said to be 1,200 times deadlier than cyanide. As such, only specially trained and licensed chefs can serve the delicacy, and licenses are not easy to obtain. Enjoy a value for money pufferfish dining experience at Torafugu-tei — try a range of fugu dishes without breaking the bank! Torafugu-tei offers three multi-course meals, and whichever you choose, you can try fugu several ways: as sashimi, deep-fried, or in hotpot.
