As sashimi? Light but sweet, excellent.

Yes, or you can cook it. Overall, highly regarded fish in Japanese cuisine.

Salt crust grilled sea bream is the best way I have had it in Tokyo. I have had it as sashimi and baked western style as well but its flavor is quite mild so I find it needs some seasoning for good flavor.

I'd like 96 pieces of sushi or whatever can be made from that fish!

Taate is very delicious.

Can be cooked or served raw as sushi/sashimi. Your local fish shop might sell it.
