Natto...

natto (the pic on the right) ...the traditional food of the japanese which is apparently common to have it during breakfast...it is usually stirred before eating it with rice...by stirring it you would notice that it is sticky and gives the cheesy string like texture....

my fasination with natto begin when i started reading yakitake manga when they show azuma's grandfather having it for breakfast...how he claims it being japanese staple food and he always had it for breakfast for his entire life....so when i saw it on the menu at Funa Sushi i couldn't resist not ordering it can i...to see how it taste like and if its as good as Azuma's grandpa said....

when it came we were wondering wat happened to the quail's egg that was featured together in the menu with the natto...we were informed that it had already been mixed in together with the natto....so without further hesitation miu miu and i started tasting the natto....

YUCKS.......dats all i can say......yes it was that bad.....the taste of fermented soy beans definately was not our cup of tea....it had a strong raw pungent taste to it....even smelling it after dat was too much for us that we had to put it far aside....i tried to give it another go by mixing it with my rice since we 1st tried it plain without anything...but the taste was too strong that even the rice didnt help much.....

natto is definately an acquired taste....we definately do not have it.... :p
