What it is
A delightful skewer featuring a medley of grilled fish (such as swordfish or tuna) and seafood (like shrimp and scallops), often interspersed with colorful bell peppers and onions. Seasoned simply and grilled to perfection, then drizzled with olive oil. Served with a fresh side salad instead of starchy sides.
Key ingredients
Mixed fish (e.g., swordfish, tuna), shrimp, scallops, bell peppers, onions, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper. Served with a side salad (lettuce, tomato, cucumber) with olive oil dressing.
If you order it anyway
Request no rice or potatoes. Confirm cooking oil is suitable (e.g., olive oil) and ensure no sugary glazes are applied to the skewers. Opt for a simple olive oil and vinegar dressing for the salad.
