    Got some tilefish from Wegmans today; never had it, so I decided to get fancy.

    So we've got a parsnip puree, with pesto. Next to the fish are roasted broccoli florets. Surrounding the plate are carrots, broccoli stem (which I quick pickled), and cilantro leaves. On top of the fish is a "pomme maxim" (a fancy French term for a layered potato chip). It was pretty good. Tonight I've been drinking gin and tonics, but I may switch to single malt after this glass....

    I had to look up what a tilefish was. Where do you find them and what would you compare it to?

    I had never heard of it, either, they just happened to have it at my favorite grocery store. The fish guy compared it to grouper, but I thought it was more like swordfish. White fleshed, flaky, but firm.

    Obviously never caught any but I know it's a deep water fish that is typically caught with electric reels. Supposed to be some of the finest eating out there. I think it's a high mercury deal like swordfish so you shouldn't eat it often but it's not easy to get.

    ETA- There was a thread years back on the hull truth were 2 guys from BSL took a 20 or 22 ft cc waaay offshore for an overnight trip where they deep dropped for pelagics. The 2 things I took from that story was (a) one hell of an adventure (b) they had some balls to do that in a small boat.

    I love the Philippines.
    I am enjoying it so far.

    Found a local Palawan made IPA. Not bad at all, especially for the price.
