Today we are lucky to have a guest poster, Bunny!
This is one of the fine specimens of fresh scallop gathered off my Dads boat in a secret location off the east coast of the Coromandel Peninsula, New Zealand. My good friend Pete (aka The Show Pony) was only too pleased for an early New Years Eve dive to feed the masses gathering back at base preparing for celebrations at the Whitianga pub.
These are the raw product from the above photo after being expertly shelled by Dad. The white part is my favourite although the red roe is also good. Mum has added some garlic butter to them also.
That’s my brother Kent's fat fingers turning the scallops on the BBQ. Here they are wrapped in bacon and smeared in garlic butter then put on the hot plate for 2-3 mins and then are ready for scoffing. Scallops are my favourite shellfish and when they are this fresh you can’t get anything better!!!!

Wow Buns, those scallops are to die for! I'm definitely making it to NZ at some point to eat me a few of them, oh and to see you, of course!

Hi Sands,
You'll have to get out to NZ to experience these delectable lovelies and also go fishing with Robbie!!
