    Got more and more into seafood these past few years, I used to hate everything fishy.

    Prawns are good, but only the bigger ones. Them small ones are rat food. The giant ones the Thai's use in Tom Yum are ****ing legendary.

    Fish, I prefer Seabass, salt baked is lush.

    I eat a lot of smoked salmon but don't really like it in fillets, cooked.

    Love tuna too, fresh preferably but if not, I buy them jars of Albacore from M&S or Sainsbury's.

    Got to respect your fish mind.

    You can get it dressed from the fishmongers man.
    All nicely packaged in the shell.
    Just pure meat.

    Love them, butterflied in Tom Yum... The king prawns here from the supermarkets taste like old knickers.

    Got to mention Roll Mopped Herrings, most supermarkets sell them in jars in a sweet brine with sliced gurkins, they are absolutely gorgeous.

    I can remember my mum buying these in the day but they didn't taste anything like they are today.

    Jewish folk make fish balls (FISH BALLS), and trust me when you have one of those things for the first time when you're expecting to bite into a nice chicken nugget (because why would you ask what it is? Surely it's chicken, nobody in their right mind would put fish inside it) it'll change your life, for the worse.

    Never again will you trust food on appearance.

    Jellied eels as well, I've never had them but if there's one thing I find more repulsive than the thought of eating an eel, it's eating an eel with jelly on.

    Never tried them, never will.

    That sort of thing, imooc, is like the tripe and the offal of the seafood world, certain people will eat that **** all day long, not for me.
