I find braised snakehead fish in a clay pot to be the most delicious when eaten with spicy rice…! The whole family should buy some to eat.

It's not delicious, but the words are worth a fortune.
Delicious food for dinners
Every season has its own set of rules.
bought many times, I would add a bit more fish sauce to make it more favorable, not as much eggs like last time thought.
Delicious fish, well seasoned. Will buy again and again
Nice flavor
Very delicious but a bit bony, be careful when eating. Bought two more boxes.
The goby looks delicious and I will try it. But I don't heat it in a clay pot because I saw the California cancer warning. The paint and quality of the clay pot are not guaranteed. I leave it on the stove to warm it up a bit, then take the fish out and transfer it to a pan to heat it up.
It's delicious everyone, you should try it if you haven't tried it yet

It was in a whole clay pot. Love it. Hope it is good.
Very delicious. Just right.
It's a bit fishy, so be careful of small fish bones when eating it. I bought it to try something new!
It was so delicious, so I bought again 3 more boxes.
Hope it is good as before
Improved quality. The fish is not fishy, just sweet enough. Heat it up for 5 minutes and eat, very convenient with a clay pot. Cheap price
The fish is too fishy, too soft, not tasty. Will not buy again.

Delicious, I've bought it many times.
Look good. First buy
Delicious, delicious, delicious, delicious
Delicious, but a little bony.
I've bought it many times, it's delicious.
The prices are much better than Asian markets, the food is fresh, and it's packaged very carefully. I need to buy groceries from Wee every week, but there's no fresh food delivery service through Gofftown, so I can only order through a friend or acquaintance. It's a shame because it's so inconvenient! Hopefully, they will offer fresh food delivery through Gofftown in the future. I'll only buy from Wee and won't need to go to any other market anymore.
I ate it, it was delicious, I'll buy more.
The fish is delicious and fragrant. I've bought it many times.
very well seasoned fish! good to eat with sticky rice. That said, I still feel the muddy taste from this river fish.
Delicious and satisfying
