I would hope that he is under the impression that this was cooked for a large party, or is in some other way 'professional' - in which case he would have had a point. I would, of course, pay more careful attention to presentation if I was cooking in a situation like that and not just for myself and Goon. However if he is arrogant enough to come to someone's site and make such a ridiculous and insulting statement about their home cooking, I don't think any excuses can be made for him.

Maybe it isn't that famous? The reviews online say it's mediocre and pretentious so maybe this reflects on the previous commenter? Coming home from work to see a pastry fishy like that on the table is fun and it made me laugh. That was the whole point. It wasn't made to impress a bunch of picky food snobs.   Just because you don't like puff pastry doen't mean we won't! It  worked really well; and although it wasn't wild salmon.. it still tasted great. How is a student supposed to afford wild salmon anyway? I vote for Ros' cooking over the Hole in the Wall any day... the food is really good... not mediocre or pretentios at all. - Goon Unfortunately, I’ve not heard of the “Hole in the Wall” in Bath… Maybe it isn’t that famous?

To be honest yours looks like a dreadful accident. The famous signature dish from the Hole in the Wall, Bath, England….

The most common one I found has a creamy dill type sauce but there are pepper and basil ones and lots of others. I wasn't particularly thinking of doing anything pastry related before making this but I loved the idea of the salmon and mulled wine type combination - it seemed really 'Christmassy' and the pastry casing just made it seem a bit more special. Franka & Julia- Thanks! I probably would have liked the fish slightly more rare, but I always say that don't I? Garrett - Thanks for the compliment. I'm having a hard time with my camera now - the damn thing has a scratch in the top left corner of the lens. :( Ah, well, I know what to put on my Christmas list! Brilynn - After reading about your feelings about cute little things, i'm not sure how to take that. ;) Rest assured though, there was nothing little about this fish. It was holding about 4 salmon steaks as well as the currants and things. Actually, it does look a bit like a goldfish doesn't it?

That cabbage looks WAY cool... shame things dont turn out so technicolor when you want them to! ;-) Thats unlike any salmone en croute I've ever had- and I've only ever had it in the UK! Go figure! It is one of Dave's favorites, except I've only seen them in a creamy sauce inside the pastry... LOVE the idea of making the pastry shell into the likeness of a fish! so cute! ;-) ahahahhaha!!
