8.15.12

Good Morning Chefs and Buyers,
 
We brought in some wonderful items this morning and have some great stuff coming our way for tomorrow.  Local Wahoo came in today.  The fish average about 20 pounds, but we will cut you whatever size piece you need.  Local Dory is still coming in fairly regularly.  These tend to be hit or miss regarding availability; so grab these 2 to 4 pounders while they last.  Wild Striped Bass is going to be hard to come by for a few days.  New York isn't pulling in as many fish as Massachusetts was and this is driving up the price.  Local 5 pound and up Monkfish Tails look fantastic this morning.
 
Gorgeous Icelandic Day Boat Cod is available.  These fish are flawless and weigh between 10 and 15 pounds and are already gutted with the head off.  Escolar from Ecuador looks great today.  It appears as though Red Snapper is going to be a problem moving forward.  We aren't seeing the same number of fish we normally do.  Wild King and Sockeye Salmon are both coming out of Alaska.  The King's average about 12 pounds and the Sockeye's are smaller at around 6.  East Coast Canadian Day Boat Halibut are flawless and range in size from 10 all the way up to 40 pounds. 
 
Tomorrow is our weekly shot of Sardines from Portugal.  We have the opportunity to get some fresh Sepia and Rouget from Spain tonight.  These are order in advance items only, however.  Whelks came our way from Maine overnight and there should be more available for the rest of the week.

Have a great day.
