I like salmon, though it's flavor is rather strong and I have to be in the mood for it. Aside from it's sturdiness, which allows it to work in a variety of cooking methods, it's flavor also holds up to other bold flavors. I worked at a restaurant that had a salmon dish that was cooked with a lot of fresh rosemary. Rosemary can be pretty overpowering, but it complemented the salmon really well. I've also had it with a black cherry sauce that was part savory and part fruity and was really pleased with the contrast. The tartness of the cherries went well with the fattiness of the fish itself.
