6.4.12

Good Morning Chefs and Buyers,
 
A new week is here.  Hopefully these rainy days don't stick around much longer.  We brought in some great items today and have more terrific stuff on the way.  Beautiful Cobia from the Carolina's showed up this morning.  The fish are large at around 12 pounds each.  Cape May, New Jersey sent us lovely U/10 and 10/20 Scallops.  Local Swordfish is super fresh this morning.  Black Sea Bass prices made a pretty significant jump over the weekend.  Please check your price list so you don't get surprised.
 
We brought in some new Oysters with a nice price and better flavor.  Malpeque's from Prince Edward Island are fantastic.  They are nice and inexpensive and come in a 125 count box.  Taunton Bay Oysters from Maine and Fire River Oysters from New Brunswick both have nice salinity and mineral levels and are rich in flavor.  Icelandic Dayboat Cod is set to arrive sometime midweek.  Until then, we will be using Gloucester Market Cod.  Dayboat East Coast Canadian Halibut are coming in again tonight.  We could not be happier with the consistency of these 10 to 40 pounders.  Copper River Sockeye Salmon are still going strong and average about 5 pounds each.
 
Wahoo came in again from South America.  These fish are big, but we will happily cut you whatever size piece you need.  Guatemalan Mahi Mahi is incredibly fresh this morning.  They are head on and available in 2 sizes; 5 to 10 and 15 to 20 pounds.  We brought in beautiful Hawaiian Tuna that is available in all grades.  New Zealand Pink Snappers are 2 to 4 pounds and will make a great alternative for small Red Snappers currently being unavailable.  We do however, have nice large 4 to 8 pound Red Snappers from Florida.
 
Florida sent us more great stuff as well.  Red Grouper look nice and weigh between 5 and 10 pounds.  We also brought in more 16/20 Fresh Gulf Shrimp that never disappoint.
