with the lenten season seafood expensive right now
but most greeks buy salted cod.
i think the last time I checked it was over 8â‚¬ a kilo.

there is a tavern in town which is known for fried bacalao.
just mentioned to M about bacalao he already said yes we will go eat out yippee

bacalao and lent are synomyous in the pinoy psyche. though i am not roman catholic, this dish evokes memories of the Lenten celebration back home. our happens to be near the archbishop’s palace (well, that’s how they call it even if it’s not that big)and the Jaro Cathedral where the miraculous growing Virgin with a thousand candles is housed.

looking at the your pics though,i just want to grab a bottle san mig or spanish wine and nibble at the salty fritters.
