Having too much fun! LOL (Lots of lionfish) dinners and a Lionfish beach BBQ party

A long time since the last the lionfish blog, but alas this does not mean we have not been feasting well LOL ( lots of lionfish!) in fact, we have been having so much fun eating all the lionfish recipes that we didn't want to spoil it for all of you who are unable to share in our lionfish feasting glee...!
Actually, although we have indeed been having some yummy lovely dinners, I admit to being a lapse reporter on these events! After a trip to England and lots of work, some weeks we missed due to being away etc. you know the story.. However we are back and have enjoyed continuing Saturday evenings of fun food, and I have redefined the irritating slogan of LOL. I only found out what this actually means recently, (I obviously am not in the texting crowd anymore!) but as its annoying, it instead should be something like this:
"hey, wot u up 2" (or whatever the current text slang is now)
"I'm eating LOL, they're tasty" (for lots of lionfish!)

We have missed some weeks, but done others, there has been some Thai lionfish and others,some I have missed but the evenings carried on, but the beast of the bunch was last Saturday, as i was there and it was on a beach! our pop up beach restaurant, serving the very best lionfish packets....


These packets are little presents of joy, inside a delightful mix of plantains, carrot, celery, onion, tomato, and the main ingredient. All baked over the fire. Then, add in the culinary delights of everyone else and we truly did have a world class beach restaurant..for one evening only!
looking a little like an advertisement for Lost of Survivor...!



We had people serving plates of Mahi Mahi. Some amazing stuffed peppers, coconut rice, roasted vegetables, cinnamon pretzels, and more.

And after everyone enjoyed the full moon beach fire before heading back. And the little pop up restaurant was no more......
Amy Cox, Thank you for the photos!
Until next time when we report on more eating of LOL. :)
