Wild Edibles Seafood Update

Good Morning Chefs and Buyers,

The North Carolina stone bass or wreckfish has arrive a second time this week and the fish is remarkably fresh, lollipop red gills and firm flesh this fish is a great sustainable option.  Tile fish came in today from the same fishery and is of the same quality.  Florida red grouper is running superb today around 10-20lb fish. 

 

Concerns over the sustainability of East Coast halibut have lead us searching for a eco-friendly solution to the demand for this fish.  We have found a farmed raised east coast fish that although is not 100% sustainable is making huge strides in developing a better east coast halibut alternative.  The Sterling White farm in Norway has sent us some truly nice head on halibut check out the information on the farm and a picture taken this morning, http://www.sterlingwhitehalibut.com/theproduct/about-the-product.

 

Weather has proved to be quite a pain this week, gale force winds have prevented catches up the seaboard.  Cold weather has stopped the Nantucket scallop fisherman from going out as the red flag has been waived twice already this week.  Wind is to blame for the lack of Maine shrimp today, tomorrow we will see.  Fish will be tight going into this weekend so we ask that you give us your order Friday to assure your fish order.
