Patty, We Had

Beer Batter Fillets in Hookts special family reciepe over the three days and they tasted fantastic.

Spanish Mackeral are at the best when fresh.

In Comparison we tasted Beer Batter Mackeral, Shark and Bluebone.  The Mackeral won hands down.

Not as firm as the Shark, Not as soft as the Bluebone,

Just Right!!!!!.
