Amazing what you find on the net, Hawkes Farm have a bit going on over in fingal.
Get on board next Friday night!
For the non pescatarians they will smash out a burger for you, the slow cooker might be up to speed as well..
There are a genuine French couple who work there and their moule’ frites* are real French cuisine.
It’s pretty windy today, from an unpleasant direction.
I have a few baguettes and some mussels to move, so I will be trading for a few hours today.
*Hawkes “frites” are the best chips.
From Bay to plate for Friday Nights at Hawkes, thanks to Harry Flinders Mussels. Bookings only, on our website
Since 1999, Harry has harvested from Flinders Aquaculture Fisheries Reserve ropes between late December until the depths of winter when spawning occurs.
Farmed Australian blue mussels are one of the most sustainable seafood choices you can make – because mussels play an important role in keeping our oceans healthy. They keep oxygen levels in check, which can help to prevent algae blooms that can be harmful to other sea life. Every day, one mussel filters up to 20 litres of seawater! As they feed off the natural upwellings of nutrients, they filter out phytoplankton and sediments.
And you’ll get more protein and iron than you do from a fillet of steak!
Served with Hawkes fries and Baker Boys sourdough!
