Hookrest Cuisine - An unexpected combination

Hookrest is a goblin town located within the rocky, almost mountain-like surroundings of the city of Atlantis. The current inhabitants of the town have no idea what their predecessors were doing building a living space in such peculiar conditions where the beloved flavor of land-walking foods has to be transported through portals and not all of it could make the trip - mainly because of size and portal size capacity
 

With this said, despite land being so far away, the local goblins had adapted through the years some ways of cooking what they had an access to that would make curious tourists flock to their location if it wasn't so difficult to get to. 
They use some of their land ingredients - like grasshoppers, rabbits, deer and milk - and combine them with hunted & caught fish, crabs, some spices they buy from Atlantis and some special add-ons from the occasional - most often lost and confused - traveler.
For example here's a recipe they'd actually cook and eat quite regularly:
Hoppin' Sea Rabbit
Ingredients: 
  • 1 whole rabbit
  • Any kind of white fish - 1 fish
  • 1 medium red onion
  • salt 
  • A couple of fruits and some ground bark from Giggling Midnight Lemint
  • Seashrooms - 4 or 5 smaller ones.
  • Cheese
  Preparation:
The rabbit gets boiled and the bones - removed. The fish is brought to the form of fillets. All the meat from the rabbit get chopped into tiny pieces, mixed with the onion - also finely cut and the cubed Lemint fruits. Steam that for 10 minutes - any more & the fruits will lose the freshness they bring. Rub the salt over the fish fillets & lightly powder the bark on top too. Put the fillets in a baking tray, spread the rabbit/fruits/onion mix on top, add the seashrooms - cut them how you like them - grind the cheese so it can cover nicely everything and bring it all to an oven until you decide the fish is cooked enough and the cheese has melted. 

Serve with a green herb by choice & a glass of white wine with a slice of lemon in it. 

When they have to hunt they are not happy because some merfolk make fun of their tiny weird tails.
