Wild Edibles Seafood Update

Good Morning Chefs and Buyers,

 

Unfortunately we were hit with some market shortages this week.  Swordfish and tuna boats have been hauling in lackluster catches, supply remains tight on number 2 and swordfish moving into the weekend.  We received a shipment of halibut from the west coast this morning, the season has ended meaning the fish will be very tight moving forward. 

 

Good news is we got some NJ black bass that is stone cold ridiculous, the fish showed up in rigor but the price is up.  We have some great golden tile from NC, and some escolar that is very firm and oily.  Today we are having a weekend special on Grouper for $5.50 a lb.  Florida snappers are very pretty this week, catches on the eastern end of Florida are yielding great fish.  Sardines landed from Portugal absolutely shining and smelling like a breeze off the European Atlantic.
