Horse meat is a Kumamoto specialty, though somehow the Japanese term "basashi"--which technically means raw horse meat--sounds a little more elegant. In any case, though I was up for trying the meat, I was not ready to venture into the raw camp. Fortunately, this little dish of raw meat and vegetables also came with a little grill. We were able to finish our meat to personal preference and then dip away in the partitioned dishes. All those sauces, and the one that ended up complimenting horse meat the best was the salt in the lower left corner!
