Did you go to the one in Cockfosters?

Yeh', Poisson, it's a goldmine of amazing stuff, if a tad expensive.
Smoked garlic, amazing sauces, loads of local pickles. They had scottish lobsters today which are twice as much, but if they had the usual canadian ones I would have gone for them.

Also check out "Cockfosters Delictesant", they are soo amazing too, and they do real bagels too.

I'll check them out
I like Poisson, had some really nice salmon and tuna from there.

They'll also get pretty much whatever you want in if you phone up the previous day, and they've reserved things for me too.
They know what they're talking about if you ask for any advice. The last thing from there that I really want to try is Monkfish.

I've wanted to try Monfish for ages
but I have no idea what to do with it. But it looks so interesting, it must be good.

I reckon I'd want the textures and flavours of it, rather than mask it in something creamy or battered, at least for the first time.
I'm thinking a foil parcel with white wine, onion, garlic, chilli, ginger... thai flavours.

But I like it when they pan-fry fish and get the crispy skin too.

Oooooo, but of lemongrass in there too
Sounds lovely.

Yeh ! Deffo, you can get little packets of thai flavours now, with all that stuff in one packet.

I prefer to put in all the spices separately personally
that way you get that sense of achievement.

I've seen a recipe for monkfish with ginger, garlic and that's about it.
Looks ace!
