Ah, no. My mother is German. My paternal grandfather was English. I believe the recipe might have been his favourite too, hence the reason it was made so often in our household.

I've never had fish raw. Nor any meat, in truth. How very unusual. That is something I would be interested to try, if it is something you would be happy to prepare?

[ As for favourites, Albert makes a soft laugh, a little shy. ]

In truth? I'm not sure I have a favourite. I'm quite content to eat most things. I spend, or rather, I used to spend, a great deal of time in the wilderness working on my photography, and I managed on what I could forage or had brought with me. What about you, sir? Is there something you particularly enjoy? Of your own culture and of Western food?
