Since our honeymoon in January I have been seriously talking about adding a food section to this blog. We both love eating out, and love cooking, so this makes sense. After making this vow on our honeymoon, I proceeded to take pictures and make notes on all of our really good meals, which have since, been sitting in my iPhoto.
Well today, that changes. You will notice to the left, there is now a food category. Not that I’m catching up quite yet, but last week we had some food that was blog-worthy. While in Hawaii we found shark steaks at the grocery store. Having never heard of, or tried such a thing, we bough two and did some internet searching and asking around on how to prepare them. We decided on a baked, lemon-ginger with pepper recipe which was really good. Served with couscous and salad it was a delicious dinner. Two steaks was pretty ambitious though, so we had enough for leftovers. I’m pretty please with what we did.
We reheated the shark and toasted some bread. We had some avocados that we added along with some lettuce, tomato and balsamic vinegar. Here is the final result, which I must say, was better than the first night we had it.
Shark bite.

And it was DELICIOUS. More of that to come…
Y’all are much more adventurous eaters than I am. Tasting the blackened alligator at your reception was a big step for me. I’ve eaten a bit of shark and even some kind of intestine at a Brazilian restaurant, but it still turns my stomach to think about it.
Intestines? whow, I like to think I’d try anything, but that’s a big step for ME.
Yeah, the texture was absolutely disgusting. Chewy with some kind of grainy stuff inside. I just remembered that it was Argentinian, not Brazilian, and it was called chinculin.
Melia, I don’t want to alarm you, but you may have eaten poop.
Brian, that sandwich looks awesome. Put me down for one when we visit!
I can say for certain that doody isn’t very tasty.
