Princess scallops does imply that the scallops are small, but it also implies that they are eaten guts and all. Smoked they are very good, whereas seared/fried they have a peculiar taste which would not normally be regarded as suitable for public consumption.

As far as I know, commercial production of smoked princess scallops ceased when the EU decided to prohibit the smoking of fish and shellfish in the same kiln.
