Seafood vocabulary
Conversation between 2 friends about seafood
John: I’ve been getting lazy with my cooking lately and I just brought some salmon burgers at the supermarket.
Linda: Wow! They sound good
John: Yes I thought so too.
Linda: I always find it interesting when they make different meats into burger form, but salmon in a burger sounds great as they are good to have in a sandwich.
John: Yea, you’re right; seafood is generally not something that is graced with burger format.
Linda: That’s true; it’s usually chowders or bisques. My favourite is crab bisque.
John: Crab bisque is very tasty, but honestly I love sushi just eating fish.
Linda: Yeah, that makes sense. But don’t you love a good lobster roll?
John: I love a good lobster roll. If I could get a lobster in burger form, I would buy it straight away.
Linda: Of course, me too, I guess a lobster roll is kind of a lobster in burger form as It’s a sandwich.
John: OK, obviously you and I love our seafood. Do people give you complain if you open a tuna or salmon sandwich at work?
Linda: I don’t usually eat any sandwich or salad at work that as fish in it, because it can make the room smell?
John: Yes, you are right sometimes in the summer I eat my lunch outside so fish sandwich or salad is fine then.
