The fish in the first photo is a ‘turbot’ from the Mediterranean Sea. We had this exact same fish at this fish market..We even followed the cook all the way to the kitchen just to make sure that they cook the fish we chose.

Marketman, I wonder if you’ve had Steinbutt before. It’s really delectable. White, sweetish flesh like cod but way better. It’s native to Norway. I wonder if a cousin of it is available locally.

no, no, it was not a mistake, MM…tagalogs call it lapad, while cebuanos and ilonggos call it palad. same way bisayas say “insakto” when they really mean “exacto” :-)
