Seafood restaurant "La Perlita" in Cozumel Mexico serves now different Lionfish dishes and plates! Sensational!!!
"La Perlita",counts to one of the best seafood  restaurants in Cozumel offers now Lionfish dishes.
This exotic species: "Pterois volitans"  "Lion fish" also known as "red fire Angel"- that is not native to the reefs of the island Cozumel is a species of venomous marine fish that continues to spread throughout many parts of the island reefs. They are actually eating their way  through the Atlantic reefs, causing the most devastating marine invasion in  human history and also put the beautiful reefs and marine life of Cozumel at risk.

Facing this problem the owners of restaurant "La Perlita" are  actively helping to control the Lionfish population by preparing exquisite  plates like:
Ceviche Lion - a real specialty.
Chopped fish filet  bits in a fresh sauce of lime, mango & chili.
Served cold & mouth  watering!!
Cozumel Restaurant Guide suggestions
Kilete a la Kisin. Little fish filets in a tasty red sauce...a  must try!!
Also fried or grilled lionfish fliets are available...everything  we (CozumelRestaurantGuide.com) tried was "yummie yummie". Usually 30-40 Lionfish add up to 1 kilogram (approx. 2  pounds) of fish - of which we can prepare 1 portion (350 gr) of the delicious  filet" explains Gladys Tun ("La Perlita").
Therefore your reservation is  required. 
Lionfish have venomous dorsal spines that are cut off  before they arrive at the chef´s kitchen. However - for security reasons every  Lionfish
has to be frozen for at least 3 hours in order to transform its  poison into protein.
The chef´s of "La Perlita" also educate other local chefs how to prepare the "red fire angel". In cooperation with the department of the National  Marine Park Cozumel, the Office of Tourism Cozumel and Canirac (restaurant association of  Cozumel) and local fishermen -
Cozumel seafood restaurant "La Perlita" is the first restaurant on the island that is actively helping to save the  reefs.
Thank you "La Perlita" !!
