In search of the ultimate sushi experience, the author plunges into the frenzy of the world's biggest seafood market — Tokyo's Tsukiji, where a bluefin
tuna can fetch more than $ 170,000 at auction — and discovers the artistry between ocean and plate, as well as some fishy surprises.
As Ellis reports, a single bluefin
tuna fetched $ 173,600 in Tokyo, and prices of a sushi dinner for two in New York City
can reach $ 1,000.
