Recently at work we have been distributing tickets to our upcoming games to business partners who were allowed a special pre-sale of premium seats. Some of them (in thoughtful, Japanese fashion) bring gifts for us as a thanks. Yesterday we received a box of donuts, and a shipment of crab from Hokkaido. The specie of crab is known as the "horsehair crab" in English, and the Japanese simply call it the"hair crab." I think it is only found in Asia around Japan and Korea. It is kind of hairy, and has really sharp spikes all around it.

Last night I took one home and cooked it. It was very good and I hope I get to take some more home because our freezer is full of it here at the office.
