Love it!
"The pasta with crab was as graceful as a first-rate ballerina, but the stuffed bass in saffron sauce left him breathless, almost frightened."
I think of saffron sauce as a light sauce, but it's the "stuffed" bass that leads to fears when later followed by the sauce reference. Fear of cholesterol-laden arteries too close to the heart perhaps?
Wonderfully evocative stuff!
I really ought to get around to reading Camilleri for more reasons than one...
One day I am going to read all the Camilleri books again and list every delicious meal mentioned.
I think there are recipes on his Italian fan site.
If you have not read Camilleri you are in for a real treat.
