Actually its usually called go-sanke. They make the best table fare
due to the white skin on them, is more appealing to folks. :-)
Don't knock grilled koi until you try it. Its only a fancy carp.

Sanke is a coloration of a koi. White body with red and black
markings......then again it could be a showa-sanke..which is a black
koi with red and white patterns.......ya gotta learn them japanese
names for colors if ya wanna be a koi keeper ;-)
