In Japan, the tai fish (or red sea bream) - known as the king of the fish - is considered a symbol of good luck due to its sparkling red color, which is considered a lucky, life-giving color.
Tai enjoy a special place in Japanese folklore and today, during the New Year, or at celebrations such as weddings, salt-grilled tai is still a special traditional Japanese dish.
