AndrewOW Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Yuk, you can't mix fish with steak! Ever heard of Surf'n'Turd, I mean Turf?! King prawns. Lovely. Are they really that good for you? As Pete says, they may well be farmed now, so could very well be genetically modified and you wouldn't know it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 I love king prawns, you get some huge ones here at the seafood restaurants in the fishing town where I live, great with either pepper or garlic. Have you tried fresh Japanese Shashimi (raw) prawns Rosie, they are also very yummy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Nic... no I'm scared off all the eating stuff raw malarky You should try it, Japanese sashimi is very yummy, especially prawns which are really sweet, obviously it needs to be properly sourced and prepared though. I once tried sashimi chickens liver in Japan which was surprisingly very tasty and melted in your mouth, this is from someone who normally hates cooked liver. I'm hungry now... need food Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ewen Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 A crab tries to get into a lobster club one night. The doorlobster refuses him entry. 'Sorry, but you're a crab and cant come in' says the big lobster. 'Whats the difference ?' exclaims the crab, 'we are all crustaceans after all' The doorlobster explains 'lobsters walk straight ahead, crabs scuttle sideways, ergo no-go' 'Ok Tosh, watch this !' cries the crab, and he does a very passable forwards walk. 'sorry, but you are still not getting in' says the doorlobster. 'why not ?' asks the crab The lobster replied 'you're obviously pissed, you cant even walk sideways' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian C Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Salmon fillets. De-lish, quick to cook and no bones, and hugely good for you. No other food is like it, it's like the Babel Fish, it's God's mistake, proof he exists, so he goes *poof* and disappears in a puff of logic.

A few months in Fallingbostel in '76 then 8 years in Paderborn and a year in a dump called Hemer near Iserlohn. I still go back to Paderborn on holiday I loved it that much.

dangerous brain Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 Char grilled fresh tuna loin that has been marinaded in garlic, ginger and soy sauce and then served in a crisp salad is one of my favourite healthy meals Especially from a fish you caught yourself 20 minutes previously. You'd be stunned at the taste difference of freshly caught over frozen tuna. You should try it, Japanese sashimi is very yummy, especially prawns which are really sweet, obviously it needs to be properly sourced and prepared though. I once tried sashimi chickens liver in Japan which was surprisingly very tasty and melted in your mouth, this is from someone who normally hates cooked liver. I'm hungry now... need food Yeah but as stated further on you'd have to have these prawns fresh and not previously frozen which they'd have to be over here in this country as they just don't grow that big here I believe. Salmon fillets. De-lish, quick to cook and no bones, and hugely good for you. No other food is like it, it's like the Babel Fish, it's God's mistake, proof he exists, so he goes *poof* and disappears in a puff of logic. Yeah only one problem I have with salmon now. I grew up on the stuff as my grandfather whom I lived with and very near for years was a fishery inspector in the south of Ireland. He was responsible for destroying the evidence of poaching (well it doesn't take a great leap to figure out how that was done ). That fish was awesome to eat. The majority of fish you find in supermarkets etc is all farmed and IMHO completely tasteless. Even the ones coming out of rivers in Scotland and Ireland aren't as good as they used to be. For good fresh salmon the only type I have eaten recently that was good enough came from Norway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
