Last night we had some ube/sweet potato noodles with coconut cream sauce
and some macadamia nut crusted fish. The fish was okay but nobody's
saying what kind of fish it was.

I've see that often in Chinese restaurants. And when they just say
"fish", it's probably tilapia. Cheap is as cheap does.

It's definitely not tilapia and it's definitely not cheap. My guess it's
swai/basa.

Basa is pangasius, the other super cheap fish.

It's called "fish" - just be happy about it.

You're the one who said "but nobody's saying what kind of fish it
was." Asian "fish"? That's basa or tilapia. Cheap is as cheap does.

I'm planning to eat ahi tonight, extra garlic, please.

I'd much prefer ahi to "fish".

Living in the birth region of the macadamia nut, I'd love to try that.
I had snapper with mango once, after a recipe by Rick Stein, and even
though it sounds weird it was very nice.
