I've been waiting all day to go see YaYa, the owner of my favorite Thai restaurant in South Florida. There are fancier places, but no one makes it better. I knew before I left home that I was going to order the whole fried fish. Someone ordered it last week when I was there and it looked divine. I go through her menu and try as many different things as possible and often let YaYa choose for me. Her chef knows I like things very spicy and will make it truly Thai Hot when she knows the order if for me. They had whole fresh snapper today and I ordered it with volcano sauce. (Sorry the quality of the picture is not better, I only had my last generation Palm Treo with me. )
Let's just say I ate everything that I could chew., fins, tail, etc. This was what was left.
YaYa...true to form brought me Pa Thong Ko (Thai Donuts) as a free dessert. She also continues to give me a 10% discount on my bill. She and I have a little dance about that. She gives me the discount and I make up the difference in my tip. We've been doing this for many months now, and I eat there almost every week.
Come to South Florida and I'll be happy to take you there!

Altho I don't eat seafood, the broc looks yummy! And, I love the "arrangement" you have with the discount vs. tip!
amazing. my mom would be so proud of you.
Well the whole fish with tale and head is fine for me, is how we cook and serve fish in Latinoamerica...it comes complete...eat it all leaving just the skeleton, even some people like the head, I don't, so I leave head with skeleton...interesting...
I chewed as much around the head as my teeth could manage. The meat around the head is my favorite part.
so you like to eat the meat around the fish head...why..because the nutients? is what they say....phosphorus?..or because flavor? my father also likes to eat fish head and eyes... it is very healthy..he said.....and how about the lips...also the fish brain contains DHA.
The meat around the head is the richest flavor on a fish. This one was fried and there wasn't much else left in the head other than the bones that were too tough for me to chew. I didn't eat the eyes this time.
