Conk not conch!

[crusinpsychRN]

I saw 2 cooking shows today and chefs called conch conch. It's conk. Just want to make sure all the CC'ers know this. Anyone say conch?

 

You can get really good conch in the islands made any number of ways, fried or ceviche being favorites.

[*Mach*]

Yep... pronounced 'conk' like a whack on the noggin but spelled 'conch'...

And it's WAY yummy!!!

:D

Huh? Conch IS Correct. Prounounced Conk. Conch chowder is awesome.

[ferfoodle]

I thought it was pronounced like conks or kongz. So like plural whacks on the noggin...

Love it!

Also in Italy you will find it as scungelli

They are sea snails.

I have heard both all of my life and according to websters, either is correct, but regardless, it is "good eats"

[elcuchio24]

I was home from work today & saw the same show. The chef who said "conch" spoke english with a foreign accent...I'm sure english wasn't his first language. Cut him some slack lol.

 

And yes, it is yummy. :D. Favorite conch for me has been at Turtle Kraal's in Key West, at the Parrot Club in San Juan & at the 9 Beaches Resort in Bermuda.

I thought this was about the waiter and Ken arguing about how it is pronunced, Conk, no Conch, and finally

 

Conk, Conch, Conk on the head.

[Trailhed1]

Don't Drink and Konk Ken on the head. He's had a rough week already.

[scooterpopsnana]

Does Carnival still serve conch fritters?? Yum!

[CapsR1]

Zorba's in Freeport has the best conch fritters, chowder, cracked conch. They are in the Port Lucaya marketplace and are open early for breakfast.

Try the stewed conch with johnny cake and grits for breakfast; a true Bahamian delicacy and absolutely wonderful! You will be full for hours!

[conchead]

Huh? :D

[Guest LoveMyBoxer]

Does this relate to a ship or a cruise? Not sure what it's about.

[Trailhed1]

Mmmmmmmm Johnny Cakes is good stuff.

[rybreadsmomshubby]

Bruschetta is one that never fails to annoy me.

 

Just about every server in the States says "brooshetta". :rolleyes:

[soccersharon]

No, I jus eat Conch,

 

or is it Conk?

 

 

I'll have whatever you're drinking...too funny!

I've heard conch is really good. My son loves it. But I saw some men pulling it out of the conch shell, and I will never get past that. I could never eat it after seeing what it looks like. :o
