Details of this tuna - It is a 4 years old bluefin tuna from Okinawa Japan.
The chef started cutting the head
This head was already sold out - for $50
Next, the chef proceeded to cut the tail
And sliced into two
This is the top part of the fish, also known as Akami
The bones are completely removed (ps - the bones are sold too)

We ordered 150g of Ootoro, which is the best part of the tuna.
The pricing of the tuna are as follows:
Ootoro (Fatty meat) - $48 per kg
Chutoro (Middle fatty meat) - $40.80 per kg
Akami (Lean meat) - $19 per kg
My Ramblings...
This is our first time trying the bluefin tuna, which is the most valuable fish.
Have always wanted to try it but this was rarely found.
