What @lynncoyle1!? Better fish than in Vancouver? Wow!
If so, that is really saying something. It must've been extraordinary (typing as it gets closer to dinner time ...) and I LOVE seafood ...
Thanks for sharing with us what appears to have been a very memorable dining experience!
P.S. I dunno @lynncoyle1. "From here," looks like Bud needs to get outside more and chase something! Or eat less ... Or ... 😉👍

Better than Vancouver @roleerob!!! But I have to say, I've been missing salmon, and that you can't find too easily here :)
hahaha yes, Buddy is fat! We can say that out loud :) He's actually been eating less and playing outside more ... so that's a good thing! He just didn't have the space to do that at our last place, so I'm glad he actually gets to be a cat here!
Thank you so much for stopping by @roleerob! :)
Yes, salmon is wonderful @lynncoyle1. I am also very fond of halibut. I have very rarely found that particular fish outside of the Northwest.
Seriously, when first reading your post, I remembered the ONE time my beloved and I were in Hawaii. Our host was a native Hawaiian, with an ancestry going back to Hawaiian royalty. As such, he took us to a "special" place (he really was trying to get us to buy into a timeshare ...), not accessible to tourists (private beach), and demonstrated his fishing prowess, with a circular net, weighted on the edges.
Very fun to watch, but when he caught a fish and proudly proclaimed this was to be our dinner that evening, I can't say I was thrilled. Growing up with catching and eating trout out of high mountain streams and lakes, it definitely did not look very appetizing at all. It was downright "ugly" (not sure how that applies to a fish, but ...)
This old saying definitely applied in our case. We dutifully went back to their home, determined to not give any offense, by in any way suggesting we didn't like the fish.
Happy to report there was nothing to worry about! Like you say here, whatever the spices and however they grilled it, wow ... ... it was a very nice meal of fresh, tasty fish (but, we didn't buy into the timeshare ... 😉).
Hope all is well with you and yours @lynncoyle1, until we "meet" again!
haha the old timeshare hook :) I don't think it matters what the fish is actually ... when it's so fresh, it all tastes good!
That's a great story though! Love when you find or are shown (in your case) a hidden gem like that :)
Thanks for popping by @roleerob!
