Yeah, it's a fish. It's pretty much the same texture and flavor as snapper, and the two are often times used interchageably to describe certain fish. For example, Tai Snapper is Pacific Red Sea Bream, which is what we got in fresh today at the restaurant. I was a little behind in my prep, but decided to do a special anyway.
I changed the final presentation after I took this pic. I 86'd the green oil since it was bleeding into the sauce (I wanted to see what it would look like), and instead of using a micro greens mixture like in the pic, I used micro cilantro instead, which would compliment the sauce better. This was just the sample for the front of the house to see and try, which is also why there is only 1 1/2 fillets instead of two full ones. But notice the nice, crispy skin . Bon appetit.
