I shall keep an eye out for Chilean smoked salmon but it's pretty difficult to get anything other than Scottish salmon here, obviously.

Scottish seafood is lovely! I had a very nice weekend at Poolewe once, visiting the gardens, and the towns around, and eating at assorted seafood places.

Chilean fruit is fabulous too. Marks&Spencer in London had Chilean cherries in January/February, and they're the best.

The seafood is one of the great delights of living here.

My favourite experience was visting Oban and going out for dinner in a restaurant on the quay. We'd watched the catch being landed off the boat earlier that day. It was so nice that my wife even ate scallops which she otherwise considers too bouncy to be a food.
