There is one fine restaurant I visit periodically where they serve a big chunk of an entire lobe in one course- and it is incredibly delicious, but I cannot look at it as I am cutting and eating it.

Served in so large a piece (8 ounces or so- enough saturated fat to last you a month), the very light cooking process means what you get is pretty much raw, and all the internal linings and fluids in there are more than I can stand to watch.

But very, very tasty...
