I've tried a lot of ceviche in my short 32 years on this planet, and not one has ever disappointed me. Whether it's squid, shrimp, scallop, fish or conch ceviche, I've tried them all and all were amazing.

It has a firm, white and flakey meat, making it perfect to hold up and not crumble into too-tiny pieces.
