Nice callout.

Neither here nor there, but many (most?) fish are carnivorous.

I think the key difference with piranhas is that they eat humans. Most carnivorous fish eat other fish or water-dwelling creatures.
Name checks out.
Pesca pescatarian - would be a cuisine made entirely of fish that eat other fish?
Apparently not piranhas, they seem to be omnivorous!
PearĂ : very peppery cream from Verona, served best with boiled meat
Sounds right
paranĂ¡: a state/river in southern Brazil
