12.13.11

Good Morning Chefs and Buyers,
 
Wild Coho Salmon came back our way.  They are about 10 pounds each and are coming in with the head off and already gutted.  The fish are bycatch from British Columbia.  This means we really have no way of knowing when they will be available again.  They should make a terrific special.  Farm Raised Halibut from Norway keeps looking great.  Each fish weighs between 10 and 20 pounds.  Wild Striped Bass seems to be back on the right track for now.  We have a mix from Long Island and Maryland and they weigh 5 to 7 pounds or 10 to 15 pounds.
 
Nantucket Bay Scallops look super fresh today.  We also have lovely 10/20 Scallops from Cape May, NJ.  We got in some U/12's from Massachusetts, but we aren't sure about availability in the days to come.  Whelks from Long Island and delicious Razor Clams from Maine also look like great choices.
 
Florida sent us some nice items this morning.  Red Grouper is here and looks great at 3 to 5 pounds each.  Large Stone Crab Claws are also available and are a can't miss.
 
We have fantastic fish available from Australia.  Barramundi that weigh between 1 and 1.25 pounds look nice today.  Hiramasa came in again.  They weigh about 5 pounds each and are stunningly fresh.
 
Chilean Turbot looks delicious as always.  They are about 2 to 3 pounds each.  If the Red Grouper from Florida seems to small for you, we are expecting to receive Black Grouper from Panama overnight.  We are always thrilled with the quality of these when we get them.  They usually weigh between 5 and 10 pounds.
