How to eat eel by Treefern

"Eel is something you can eat."

How I did it: Today I ate eel for the first time. I went to a restaurant, waited to be seated and took a deep breath. I knew it was something I wanted to try.

It was cheap, so there was no harm in trying. 
I had moral support from the love of my life.
It went down well with the rest the Japanese feast.
Satisfied after a yummy meal of Japanese food we walked home (my partner and I, not the eel & I).

Lessons & tips: Just do it.

Don't be scared.
Take a friend or someone who can make comments like 'eewwwwww I can't believe you ate that'! 
Just to make you laugh.

Resources: The local Japanese restaurant,

the menu, (must include some eel recipes)
& a loved one, family member or friend or all of them together.

I found this picture on the internet and in no way resembles the creature that was actually consumed tonight.

Some wisdom from my father

Here is a brief poem that he sometimes recites:

I like eels,
Except at meals.

I’m siding with him for the time being.
