Somehow the 'monger' bit sounds so masculine to me.<BR/>If you do go ahead with this fish dish, then please let me know what you thought of it, thanks!<BR/><BR/>Antti - I knew you'd approve:) Though I did almost left the shop after spotting some razor clams on display. Spoooooooky..<BR/><BR/>Keiko - was that in the episode when poor Dean (my favourite as well - so cute:) made tea-infused steamed fish? I didn't see the cooking bit, only the judging. I spotted pretty much the same recipe in Sunday Herald (a Scottish broadsheet) yesterday in Marjorie Lang's (MasterChef 2000 apparently) column, so it seems to be all the rage at the moment! <BR/><BR/>MM - this wasn't too expensive either, I paid 5 or 6 quid for the fish. It would have served up to 3 persons, but it was finished by two hungry Estonian lassies this time.. And thanks for the bamboo steamer tip - will try it. Once I buy myself one:)<BR/><BR/>Sha - the list of foods to eat this summer in Greece is growing and growing. I can live without ginger (as opposed to garlic, parsley and dill), but it's definitely a lovely to have in the kitchen!<BR/><BR/>Mark - that John Torode again - sadly, he doesn't get a mention in the Epicurious post:) Was he the judge back in 2000? That would explain the recipe in yesterday's Herald.. I've been eyeing that Dover Sole at Eddie's for a while, but it's ca 20 pounds, which is way to expensive. So seabass, salmon or haddock it is.. <BR/><BR/>Bea - yep, there's pretty much always a dessert, although it's usually something that can be whipped together in minutes. So they don't really count:) <BR/><BR/>Tankeduptaco - not sure my fishmongress's husband actually catches the fish - I think he's just behind the counter as well. So I'll stick to my fishmongress:)<BR/><BR/>Paz - thanks! It's really easy to make as well!Pillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05817049547134774699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-1143246170233866192006-03-25T02:22:00.000+02:002006-03-25T02:22:00.000+02:00p.s.

Eddies is fab - try some Turbot or Dover Sole next if your wallet can take the pain - these are my 2 favourite fish, Scottish langoustines are very good too.

I am in the happy position to have a "fishmongress" round the corner, but I agree with you that it pays to be more adventurous from time to time and not only to take the same types of fish. Thank you for sharing.
