Yum! I also eat the palikpik when they are crunchy and love it when there are fish eggs in the belly! I’m hungry na!!! (Great visuals and vivid descriptions!)

Does anyone else eat the eyes? I love digging through the nooks and corners of a fried fish to get all the sweet meat hidden in the cheeks and protected by bones. Sweet and tasty, healthy no matter what (better than those fried fish patties in fast food places).

The second picture is a much rounder fish, is it the same as the golden pomfret? It’s my favorite, best for sinigang!

I think the American name for this fish is golden pompano? Maybe not, but it looks like one, and I love this fish not only fried but also cooked as “pinangat” with kamias, cherry tomatoes, a little vinegar, salt and lots of oil toward the end. Heavenly specially for breakfast.
