...stands out in Helder's memory: hare stewed in its own gravy with onions. "It was so natural," he says, deliciously simple in a style that he emulates at Parkheuvel, his Rotterdam restaurant, where the menu features more elaborate dishes, including ravioli stuffed with shoulder of pork and grilled turbot with an anchovy cream. Escoffier would be proud. "You can get so much pleasure from very simple things," says Savoy. "This morning, I feasted on a slice of bread and salted butter." Visit his Paris restaurant (also called Guy Savoy), and the dishes will be more sophisticated (and more expensive...
...groups say the boycott will probably hurt lawful wholesalers the most. The campaign mirrors a boycott of Atlantic swordfish launched by environmentalists in 1998. That species recovered after temporary fishing limits were imposed. Until the Chilean sea bass is back in good graces, environmentally minded diners can switch to turbot, grouper or striped bass. Put on a good sauce, and you probably won't know the difference...
...March 3, two years after the Canadian government itself imposed a moratorium on cod fishing in the Grand Banks--at enormous cost in lost fisheries revenue and a massive re-education and assistance plan--the government called for a 60-day moratorium on turbot fishing while it dealt with a challenge to the European Union quota.

Canadian officials, who have stopped European boats recently to prevent overfishing of turbot, flatly denied the charges. Still, the uproar caused international talks over the issue in Brussels to be suspended for a day. Behind the scenes,TIME Ottawa contributor Gavin Scottsays, cooler heads at the negotiating table expect a full resolution as soon as Monday...
...writer used to be able to get a saucisse de Toulouse and a plate of mashed potatoes for about $1. One section of the Dome has been turned into a really excellent fish restaurant (Michelin gives it one star), with a comfortably old-fashioned decor and atmosphere. The baked turbot is superb, and the Macon makes it even better. But if the sausage is only a memory, so is the old price: dinner for two costs...
