Oh come to Tokyo, there're some sushi restaurants open until 3am or even later.
But... I guess you've given it up and gone to bed now? xD
And yeah, I do understand. I sometimes have that kind of urge myself.
So, HERE (http://www.ariake.co.nz/custass_sashimi.jpg)'s a little something for ya. :-)

Some non-seafood meat could be served in sashimi or tataki (seared sashimi) form too, like duck tataki

Or, beef tataki:

The Japanese word for searing is "yakishimo."

Another odd "sashimi," around inland regions, thin-sliced konnyaku served with miso-based sauce.

It's hard to find a good 24 hour sashimi place. There are few around SHibuya and Roppongi

I'm just happy I'm too closed minded and a bad tourist to get addicted to raw fish.

Its one thing when it has a bed of rice to soften the yuck factor, but on its own?, no thanks.

I can only emagine the number of food poisoning deaths in Japan prior to things such as modern medicine and kitchen hygiene.:blush:

Be careful cooking it. Too long and it becomes tough.

You could say that about a lot off countries. Hygiene in this country wasn't exactly brilliant.

Yeah but the whole raw aspect of food in Japan ontop of those ye olde lack of hygiene must have done anything but help the situation.

Itawasa, sliced kamaboko fish cake, is sashimi appetizer substitute / sake accompaniment at soba restaurants.

Y'know, I've never in my life tried sashimi, but I have to say it looks delicious! :liplick: Who cares if it's raw? :blush: (Meat is still... flesh, even after it's been... heated up somewhat :bluush: )

Ruibe is an Ainu word, meaning "frozen sashimi." Salmon parasites are killed by keeping fish under subzero (lower than negative twenty celsius) snowy outside, then it can be served raw.
The slices thawing in the mouth is a part of enjoyment.
It is a Hokkaido specialty, of course.
