Remarks
It's not essential to use sea bream, you can use any good fish that's in season.

If you don't have cherry tomatoes, use larger tomatoes sliced.

For the cheese in the polenta, I recommend (as usual!) Comté, but any other cheese you like will work just fine.
Keeping: Should be eaten immediately.
