Many moons ago (when I had a lot more hair than I have now), I used to import Japanese cars. In fact I used to spend half of my time in Japan and import 300 cars every year.
Japan is an experience and if you do get a chance to go, Go!
One thing I do remember is occasionally, because even then it was outrageously expensive, just occasionally, having a steak.
Not just any old steak, but a richly marbled steak that comes from Wagyu cattle.
The word “Wagyu” translates as “Japanese cow” of which there are four principal breeds, Japanese black, Japanese brown, Japanese shorthorn, and Japanese Polled. Kobi beef, of the Japanese black is the most popular and you can get one for around £125.00 for 250 grams in the Uk.
Some call it the caviar of beef and it comes from pampered cows. Probably the most pampered and chilled out cows in the world. Apparently a pampered chilled out cow is a happy cow and produces the best and “fattiest” steaks.
