Japanese food

At the end of every year , the lab held an end year party. Since I do not eat meat , they always serve me sea food.
Before I came to here I thought sea food means just fish and specific number of dishes. As we in Syria do not depend so much on the sea food ( except the coastal area of course). Actually I was wrong. I found that they have LOTS of dishes which can be prepared from the sea. Here are some pictures but sorry I can not remember the name of each dish , even more I did not try to remember as I will never be able to do so. The important thing that they all were soooooooo delicious , with the exception of the last dish.
I did not like it much although they confirmed to me that it is very high ranked dish in Japan. Do not ask about the prices. The first 4 dishes were served hot or warm while the rest were cold ones. By the way it is one of the rarest time they did not serve rice at the dinner. Enjoy!!!


Oysters
Oysters with Noddles
Crab
Shrimp with Vegetable
Fish
Whale meat with special shrimp.
Note the green and yellow mixtures. The green one is Wasabi which you put with the sauce in the left. The yellow one , I can not remember its name, you put it in the right sauce. I liked the yellow one more.
The whale meat is the red ones . It is really GREAT taste , although I felt some compunction as it is Internationally forbidden to fish whales.
Liver of a fish which grow far deep in the sea.
Lastly, every time I taste some Japanese dishes I really find it tasty. Please every one do not miss any chance to taste it.
