I'm allergic to fish, so I can't comment on the taste. But it sure did smell good!

This recipe is a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better.

I'm not usually a fan of fish, but this dish changed my mind. The finnan haddie was mild and flaky, and the cream sauce was creamy and flavorful. I'll definitely be making this again.

This classic dish was a delight to make and even better to eat. The fish was cooked perfectly and the cream sauce was rich and flavorful. I served it over mashed potatoes and it was a hit with my family.
