12.8.11

Good Morning Chefs and Buyers,
 
It's time to start thinking about another busy December weekend.  We brought in some terrific items and have more great stuff coming in tonight.  Live Scallops in the Shell from Long Island are here.  Long Island also sent us some lovely Whelks.  U/10 and 10/20 Scallops should be no problem this weekend.  The 10/20's are from Cape May, NJ and the U/10's are coming in from Massachusetts.  Nantucket Bay Scallops are also available.  Get them while you can.  We are expecting the high winds in New England to really do a number on Nantucket Bay Scallops, Fresh Squid and Wild Striped Bass for the days to come.
 
Blackfish from Boston looks like a great option today.  They are super fresh and weigh in at 3 to 5 pounds each.  More delicious Razor Clams found their way here from Maine this morning.  We have a great deal on #2 Tuna tomorrow.  Give us a call to find out more.  Local #1 Tuna is coming in overnight and we expect the fish to be beautiful.  They will be a mix of Big Eye and Yellowfin, so please specify which you would prefer.
 
Our weekly shipment of Portuguese Sardines has arrived.  We have some extra for the weekend.  Chilean Turbot looks great at 3 to 4 pounds each.  Unfortunately, we got cleaned out of Escolar and won't have any more until Monday.
 
Monster Catfish from Delaware showed up today.  We only have a few fish, but they are over 30 pounds each.  Despite being a hideous creature, they are incredibly sustainable. 
 
Florida sent us lovely items today.  5 to 10 pound Red Grouper with bright red gills to match are here.  All the Red Snapper you need came in.  We have them from 2 pounds all the way up to 8.  Fresh 16/20 Shrimp from the Gulf arrived as well.

Have a great day.
