Catfish 'fingers'
Here’s a plate of catfish pieces from Dinosaur BBQ. I prefer to call them catfish ‘fingers’. nothing too odd about these, but they are very different from the catfish in Thailand. Thais eat a lot of catfish (bplaa duk [ปลาดุก]) prepared in many ways. Thailand is also known for some of the largest catfish in the world: the mekong giant catfish. These fish can be in excess of 250 kilograms! Unfortunately, they are very endangered due to overfishing so I don’t plan on giving them a taste anytime soon.
