Hi Marketman. I haven’t seen mahi-mahi in the local markets (Farmers, seaside)—does it go by any other name? Great post as usual—thanks!

Simple but very filling and wonderful, this is the type of food, most people like. Can’t ask for more!!! Wonderful photos as usual, MM it certainly heightens the cravings of people who are out of the country and can’t have them.

Yes MM, Bogo IS a “better” fish market than Pasil. In Bogo its more about QUALITY than quantity.

Whenever we are up north, we always make it a point to drop by the market (on our way back to the city) with ice filled coolers in hand so that we can take some fish home (and even to Manila!!). And yes, the lato is Awesome.

And if I may add to Silly Lolo’s observation…”You are every bit as good as National Geographic!” and Discovery Channel combined…..REALLY!!… ;-)
