Well our trip to Vancouver Island was a success despite some very rough seas, I'll spare you the usual pics of dead bodies and instead on this thread I'll put up a few pics of how  Pacific Halibut is often prepared here on Canada's west coast.

There are Halibut cheeks and Yes they come from the head of the fish-Halibut of course have broad flat heads so there's lots of cheek meat-as you can see it has a bit different texture and overall is a bit sweeter taste-these have some Thai sweet chili sauce dribbled on as shown & are simply broiled-ambrosial!

Drool.....
Now I am really hungry.  Is there any way you can overnight a doggie bag to HI?  I'd be happy to pay shipping costs  :)
Hope springs eternal
for the consumate fishermen.

Oh yum, I bet those cheeks make for fantastic sashimi.

sashimi = bait!
Please don't do the halibut the injustice of not having the decency to take the time to cook it. ;D

Hey whale breath.  Show some photos of the fish.  Those were big cheeks.  Dominick
Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.
