hello vanjo! I would just like to ask if there’s any other alternative fish for mahi nahi fish? Can i use creamy dory for fried fish sandwich? I don’t know where here in manila i can find that kind of fish. Thank you very much and more power to you!

Josie, cream dory is a good alternative to mahi mahi. It has that white flesh with a mild flavor.
