Its near impossible to find here. Is it easily available in Italy? I think I only ate it once, in France. I think its quite a mild fish, like trout?

Very nice. Grapes don’t get used enough in savory dishes, IMO.

That sounds interesting. I always forget about using grapes in cooking.

Perch is difficult to get hold of in the UK unless you know a freshwater angler. It's a great fish and wish it was more readily available

You should try Sole Veronique, a classic french dish using white/green grapes paired with Lemon or Dover Sole.

I cooked 7.5 kgs of chicken tandoori this morning, and then made 1½ kgs of kachumbar - a red onion and tomato salad with mint, coriander, fresh chiles and lime juice. An Indian version of a pico de gallo, I suppose.
Tomorrow I've got hauled into an event called 24 Arepas. (Arepas are a Venezuelan staple, made with ground cornmeal).
I had to deliver all the cooked ingredients today, because tomorrow, the event starts at 7am and it's right across the other side of the city.
I'll send the pictures in a bit.
