Fega Barramundi is raised in open sea water throughout its life, a pristine, healthy ocean environment with free flowing currents. Fega Barramundi has a sweet Sea Bass flavor profile and a firm texture, medium flake, year round availability and a portion cost to satisfy most food cost targets. It was difficult to make a fair margin on Halibut this year and I do not see any relief in sight. In my opinion, I feel the fish has out priced itself for what it is worth and know there are many other options available with similar or better characteristics.
