These little fish are delicious and easy to make; they're great as a snack or with drinks.
Such small fish, I wonder how they taste. This is my first time buying them.
Better to order at Wee!
Defrosted some today, cooked wrapped in banana leaves. Probably the 3rd or 4th time getting this fish and always satisfied with the delivery and the fish.
The first time, the baby was very small.
The fish was indeed fresh, just as many reviews said.
I bought it for the first time in a while. After preparing it, I ate it marinated in sweet and sour sauce and deep-fried. Maybe it's just my imagination, but some of them were much smaller than last time, but it was delicious
First time to buy very satisfied
The small fish are tasty and can be fried or grilled. Delivery is convenient, and they offer good value for money.
Whether fried or braised, the fish is incredibly delicious.

It was nice to have this at home
So fresh! I've bought it many times already! Finally got to eat smelt!
Very delicious, for a snack or rice bowl. Will be reordering.
It tastes good when mixed with salad.
It tastes delicious when dipped in wasabi mayo and eaten with seaweed. You can taste a subtle umami sweetness, and the sourness is pleasant without being unpleasant. Remove moisture after thawing to preserve the texture.
Great and delicious
Such a delicious treat! This was my first time trying this dish. The roe color is vibrant yellow and just Texture is perfectly crunchy and tender. Yes it is little sweet but if you pour little bit of soy sauce, it makes it even better balanced flavor in my opinion You can even arrange it with fresh dill and it'll taste like dill pickle. Possibility is endless. I just love it so much and I will definitely buy it again in the near future. Some people are saying that it is little fishy. I honestly didn't think so. It is somewhat similar to mackerel sushi. If you can eat mackerel sushi, you won't have any problem with this one. I think the price of this item is very reasonable for this good quality.
looking good using this to make oshizushi
Very fresh, generous portion, looks very appetizing.
Delicious! Will buy again!
