What's for Dinner

[stingnyc]

On my recent trip to Asia I visited the Island of Hainan. It was amazing to see the assortment of seafood they had available. Many items available are common to our hobby and some might even sock you :shocked:

I personally wouldn?t eat anything that colorful. They were selling them for $55RMB per/ kilo or about $6.7 dollars.

I guess our fish feel alot more luckey when they realized they were in the exporters nets instead of the chef's nets. More pics please.

Different strokes for different folks? But I found it to be interesting. Hainan also had a great reef! The pics to took came out blurry, but they had lots of caps and green slimmers.

The green wrasse is supposed to be really good! But I would be cautious eating the parrot fish because the meat is slightly toxic.

i wonder how much that dish would cost us here lol.
steve why didnt you try the wrasse out?

 

[stingnyc]

More pics please.

Here are a few I posted on Cali's thread:

Go to the fish market on 8th Avenue of Brooklyn. Sometimes they have wrasses. Check out the resturant's tank, once a while they also have them in the their seafood tank.
