Sea bass in parchment paper

I was watching a little Food Network last week and saw Rachel Ray do a sea bass recipe. I really enjoy sea bass. It's a tad pricey but it probably is my favorite fish. It just has such a sweet yummy flavor. This particular recipe peaked my interest because one of my favorite sea bass meals is prepared by a restaurant here in Charlotte, Upstream. They do sort of an Asian flare and so did this. Lots of shitakes ginger and garlic. The end result was ok. I could not decide exactly what I did not like. I thought it was a tad vinegar heavy but Chris said he thought I was tasting the ginger.

Either way the recipe called for rice wine vinegar. I had rice wine and rice vinegar not rice wine vinegar. Chris said I should use the rice vinegar- in the end I think I would have been happier with the rice wine since it is sweeter. If I do decide to make this again I will definitely go with the rice wine.
