Some of the lakeside restaurants on Mexico's big bass lakes serve Black bass Vera Cruz style, OK, but a long way from Huachinango, unavilable on the west Coast.

I suspect that it's good, but "Vera Cruz" style, traditionally with whole "dog" (little) Gulf Red Snapper or "Huachinango", Pargo to some folks (more delicate than Pacific Snapper or Mango Snapper), usually is prepared with tomatoes, fairly mild green chilies (or not much Serrano or even Jalapeno), capers, sliced green olives, garlic, lime juice and oregano. Blue crab is so much more delicate than the cold water varieties of the Mid/North Pacific that it's rarely served with intense sauces like "Veracruzano".

Favorite: Grilled Chilean sea bass
Least favorite: Escolar presented as "white tuna" in sashimi or sushi.
Honorable mention to Basque Kokotxas and my own cedar planked salmon.
Dishonorable mention to the majority of restaurants that serve salmon. Most overcook it.

Agree. Salmon is the one seafood that I'll never buy at the store or order in a restaurant, except smoked/cured. And I've tried a lot of different seafood. It's odd to me that people who generally don't care for fish will still like salmon, where I'm just the opposite.
