Chicago Tribune: Deadly fugu fish off menu after FDA rules are violated
The battle of extreme Japanese cuisine hit a snag Thursday when a Japanese restaurant in Lincoln Park that had for nearly a month been serving a variety of fugu...learned its unique menu item violated federal regulations. Tsuki Japanese Restaurant and Lounge...had bought the torafugu...from a supplier who admits sometimes having the fish shipped directly to Chicago from Japan. U.S. Food and Drug Administration rules require that all imported torafugu first stop in New York City...Agnes Yoshikawa, the owner of Tsuki [said] "I'm embarrassed."
