There are myriad types of fish cakes, and it’s hard not to love them all.

They can be the frugal kind, made from leftovers: yesterday’s fish, flaked and folded into yesterday’s mashed potatoes. They make pretty good eating with a dab of tartar sauce. Or there are fancier uptown versions, made with crab meat or lobster, if you’re feeling flush.
