This bring to my mind a trip we had in Istanbul where my (chinese) husband couldn't resist the smell of grilled mackerel and got a small mackerel full with bones in between bread. Ah, ah, he tried very hard and couldn't eat it!
Talking about a chinese fried fish dish with little bones that I LOVE, my mother in law, shanghainese, used to cook all the time. I think it's Xun Yu ( 上海茉莉花茶熏魚 but I copied on Internet, my Mandarin is like baby level :-)))
I think there was another recipe with scabbard fish but I don't know the name, actually if anybody could help me finding the possible recipe would be great. My mother in law English is not that great and nobody in the family (my son included) is patient enough to translate for me (or they lack the vocabulary in english)
