[Sca-cooks] a Lenten question-

[Sue Clemenger]

I don't know where our 2 sushi places in town actually get most of their 
fish--I suspect it's flown in, specifically for them.  Certainly, it's 
not the sort of thing/variety the ordinary person would find in a market 
here--we're too far inland, and too small a town. I've never actually 
had any kind of eel except the smoked variety, which is very tasty.
