New fish this weekend!! This past Tuesday I added to my fish tattoo sleeve with a few local species. As luck would have it I stumbled upon a fish I’d never seen before at market and had to get it to add it to my list.
BURBOT or Lake Ling. Freshwater fish from Canada. Deliciously moist and meaty. Sometimes the ugliest fishes can be the tastiest.

The second anniversary is CRAB right?!? Tell me I’m not crazy! Two years married to my best friend (not to mention business partner, voice of reason, adventurer, and best cat mom). We both had work things to do and mine happened to take me near G Mart in Milford.
I couldn’t resist buying a live Dungeness crab plus all sorts of things that Kate would get, i.e. anything we can’t read lol. This was a meal maximizing as much seafood and interesting things as we could get into it, just like our lives.
Dungeness crab, green crab stock, abalone, scup mince fishballs, quail eggs, and more!

Opah! aka Moonfish 🌕 from New Zealand. Try it if you like swordfish or tuna, on the grill or as sashimi or crudo!

As our team has grown and we’ve brought in more and more fishes we thought it appropriate to have team meetings on Thursday. This allows me to go over all the new items of the week with everyone so they can better serve you!

A wide variety of fishes and shell fishes available this weekend for Father’s Day. Plenty of options to throw on the grill. Don’t see something you want? Call us and ask your monger what treasures may be hiding that didn’t get mentioned!

No, that’s not tuna! That’s a bite of fluke and watermelon crudo, made with fresh wasabi and . A true bite of summer!

Skate wings!! Delicious, soft, sweet meat. Thanks to John at I was able to get some whole skate for the first time. Normally the market only sells the wings. Catch em at the while you can.
