What is "terapia" fish?!
We asked a restaurant what kind of fish is in their fish and chips. They said "terapia." What kind of fish is that? The best I can get out of Google is that it's Spanish for "therapy."
Answers:
Like Nate says they are tilapia. Originally from Africa and they are raised in warm, freshwater ponds and look a lot like a large crappie.
sister in law raises and eats them.
I've eaten breaded Tilapia fillet packed and sold in grocery store.
These are Middle Eastern fresh water fish.
