<When You Visit Japan, Eat Fugu!>
When you come to Japan, you should eat fugu, or puffer fish. Its appearance is unique, and its taste is outstanding. The town of Minamichita in Aichi Prefecture is famous for its fugu and fishermen catch it in the surrounding waters. Sashimi, deep-fried, or hot pot... you can enjoy it in a variety of ways. High in protein and low in fat, it is very healthy.

Watch this video introducing Minamichita's attractions.
