peer agreement (net): +1Seafood X 2 - Twofold seafood - Seafood duo Explanation: It is not necessarily "romantic". Italians often use "di mare" instead of "frutti di mare", which means "seafood", and it has been translated literally into Spanish. So "seafood" is the right word for "di mare". |

peer agreement (net): +1Seafood Stew Duo Explanation: No Goigle hits. Just an idea that might work if you don't want to leave the name of the dish in Spanish, and that could fit in well if the other dishes on the menu end up having quirky names in English. |

peer agreement (net): +3| duo de mar leave it in Spanish Explanation: See the discussion entries. There's no exact equivalent in English, Mónica says the menu goes on to provide a description, and leaving it in Spanish just makes it sound more interesting and exotic. |
