After all, ask any chef at any of the top restaurants in Bucks where they source their fish and they'll say Hellers. Entering Heller's is like entering a museum of fine seafood. But, things have definitely improved at Buckingham and gas is more expensive than it was a few years ago, so we've settled into a routine of buying our fish from Buckingham. We usually also pick up some smoked fish there (although they don't smoke their own fish) and a container of one of their chowders or soups (the she-crab soup and crab gazpacho are our favorites).

And though it certainly does have a wider selection than Buckingham, I don't agree that the fish itself is better. Not worse, necessarily -- Heller's really is a great shop -- but so is Buckingham, and really you have to go fish by fish.

We do a similar thing sometime, inspired by the book hot sour salt sweet. They will add some chopped coriander root and some peppercorns to the mix, and wrap the whole in thing banana leaf, which I think adds a nice aroma (or at least looks nice!). Great looking blog! I'm really glad to have found it. Lots of stuff right up my alley. P.S. we have the same little cutting board. (it's under our sliders). Hi Robin,

Was meaning to write you about it. I absolutely loved it and couldn't believe they still had some corn and tomatoes. I'll have to pick up some zucchini loaves next time. I feel like it is a foodie-area of sorts, or maybe it's just that all I do is gab about food, but it seems that I meet food-oriented people out here all the time.
