Yaki-sanma
It's the season for sanma (pike fish, fr.: brochet), of which the Japanese name 秋刀魚 contains the character for autumn (秋), and I've eaten it in a form or another for 4 days in a row!
On Monday I met with friends and we went to Tsukijigawa-kōen, a park near Tsukiji which offers free barbecue accomodation. I think you have to book in advance, but they lend you barbecue space plus all necessary grills and stuff. There we grilled some quasi-fresh sanma (not fresh from the fish market, which was all closed, but rather expensive variety from department store Mitsukoshi), along with vegetables and stuff. It was very delicious, and it was nice to eat out in a park in such nice weather.
When we were done, we gave our fish remains to a visitor cat who feasted happily.
