6.27.12

Good Morning Chefs and Buyers,
 
The bad weather around the country earlier in the week is still having an effect on available items.  We managed to get a lot of great stuff in this morning; but some items are still not around.  6 to 8 pound head on Snook from New England look like a great choice for a special.  Rhode Island sent us beautiful Wild Striped Bass today.  They are pulling in some pretty big fish.  We have them from 8 all the way up to 20 pounds.  Cod was a problem today, but we are hoping to get some nice Steak Cod tonight.  Black Sea Bass is going to be tight for a few days too.
 
It looks like this tropical storm in Florida is really taking it's toll.  We aren't seeing any Mahi Mahi, Red Snapper or Tilefish.  All they seem to be sending our way are 16/20 Fresh Gulf Shrimp.  Luckily, they are perfect as usual.
 
Local Tuna and Swordfish are on their way here.  They are caught between North Carolina and New Jersey and we only see the best and freshest fish from these boats.  U/10 and 10/20 Scallops are still coming in regularly from our friends down in Barnegat Bay, New Jersey.
 
Sardines are set to arrive as scheduled overnight from Portugal.  We have been very happy with the quality of late and are expecting more of the same.  Farm raised Scottish Sea Trout came in again.  They are super fresh and similar to an oversized Rainbow Trout.  They run between 10 and 12 pounds each.  The price of Halibut came down.  Please check your attached pricelist for the new lower price on these gorgeous 10 to 40 pound Canadian fish.

Have a great day.
