How do they compare to the previously mentioned? the wahoo probably would be the closest to cod. I eat cod and haddock but on island I love the red snapper. One of the best I've had was at Rosemary's in Marigot waterfront near the open-air market. She offered it grilled or fried.

Somehow I always get to Marks thinking I'll try one of the many dishes people here say are "the best" and when I get there RIBS RIBS RIBS takes over my mind! I think I'll try Marks snapper next time to compare to Rosemary's in Marigot. Thanks for that info.
