Ya i've seen some pretty crazy food habits at top Asian Sushi restaurants. the type where typically every customer but the odd one is asian.good luck getting Asians to do this
I've seen a lobster prepared live as sushi where the tail was scored and inverted but only enough that they could flip and not detach it and then the meat in the tail diced up into sashimi . The lobster was then put on the table with its claws bound and they guests proceeded to the eat the meat out of the tail while the lobster was trying to escape. Someone would just gently push it back to the centre of the platter with the chop sticks as they ate away.
I've seen them bring out a live fish gently punched and perched atop a a structure of large tooth picks (skewers) and then the chef dices the belly meat at the table, all the while you see the fish flexing and trying to dislodge itself as its being eaten.
In both cases once that first meat was done the remaining portion was taken back to the kitchen, still alive, and cooked and prepared in another manner and brought back out.
Weirdly it seems to me that the more an animal suffers or is nearing extinction the more many asians want to eat it.
