They served these in first class on my ANA flight from IAD-NRT. I was very impressed that they would serve such a dish on a flight.

The dish was OK -- I would call it a generic fishy taste, a bit unctuous, with a texture that you'd expect based on what it looks like. Tasty enough, but not too exotic on the tastebuds. I would certainly order it again.
