                                In many Indian coastal communities, the moniker "King of Fish" is a revered title, most often bestowed upon the Surmai, or Seer Fish. This large, migratory fish is not just another catch; its flaky texture, mild taste, and versatility in numerous dishes have cemented its legendary status across the subcontinent.
