Seafood is disgusting!

[upsidedown]

HiD loves her fish and I enjoy most so long as filleted, cant be doing with all the faffing about. Both of us give shellfish a miss.

Sardines cooked straight off the boat in a Portuguese harbour with a glass or two of wine. Heavenly. What beats cod and chips out of the paper?

I disagree 100%. You are missing out on some of the best gastronomic experiences on the planet.

Nothing nicer than a huge cold shellfish platter at a decent Parisian brasserie. La Coupole is one of my favourites. Also love it at Brasserie Mollard. Fantastic places. Really worth the trip and the cost.

Oysters there are expensive but amazing, especially the Gillardeau variety. Lovely when washed down with a nice Sancerre.

I love fish. but France smells of fish, yes I did say fish.

The good old days, did you get your photo took when you were there , I still have my barra's photo from 1962 with two old [now deceased] pals.
The barras you used to scratch for a week after a visit.:thup:

Muy dad used to take me to the Barra's most Saturdays when I was a kid. Loved it. He was always on the look out for tools (he was a cabinet-maker). Never got any photo's taken - why would he I suppose.

I don't eat fish except smoked salmon and rarely ate shellfish.
No shellfish now after a very scary reaction to scampi which resulted in my first overnight stay in a hospital.

I like seafood, but not to the extent that some do.

What I absolutely love though, is the smell from a market stall selling fresh seafood. I normally find an excuse to walk past a couple of times!

I got my 1st ever golf club from the Barras, a Slazenger 9 iron with a grip so worn it was like carbon fibre

The camera of the day was a box brownie which produced a 3x3 black and white photo, so a good large print was good to have.Still have mine with my drainpipe trousers and long fingertip length jacket. No bum freezers in them days.

Dressed crab bought undressed from Folkestone where I work. Takes a while to dress it but the eating always seems to make it more worthwhile
