since we have the so called lion fish invasion over here,people eat them a lot, and our restaurants serve them,today I was having lunch at some place and they told me they had lionfish ceviche today..I really dont care for ceviche
I prefer raw tuna splashed with salty soy sauce:facepalm: so I passed but I will have it another day and tell you guys how it tasted..

Now is this freshwater or salt ?

looks like a d!#$ ! and they squirt when you take them out of the mud,right? But then again the weirdest looking things taste the best (sometimes!) I have seen these on anthony bourdains shows he also says they taste great.
we have conch over here very good eating also!

Island Mike the ladies get excited when they see a geoduck live and in person and squiting!! The neck is usually eaten raw while the body can be saute or pan -fried. I have a conch shell given to me but have never eaten one, how is the taste?

I would love to know any lady that gets exited by a geoduck!lol!
Conch can be eaten raw or panfried too,The taste is very sweet and tender.
On my island we cant take them from the sea anymore(its still done though:facepalm:)due to a very high demand..
regards I mike
