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.

The Wreckfish is a bottom dwelling large growing species that is very similar to Grouper. The Wreckfish can be found from 150'-2000'. The name "Wreckfish" comes from inhabiting shipwrecks and "Stone Bass" from the rocky ledges. The Wreckfish packs on the moisture for body temperature regulation in cold waters. The species can grow very large all the while maintaining the silkiness and sweetness of Grouper. Prepare larger cuts with moderate heat and the smaller fillet portions more quickly.

Tasmanian Atlantic Salmon possess a very rich fat content. Tasmania Salmon present beautifully and are leagues above commodity aquaculture facilities. Tasmanian Atlantic Salmon will behave similar to higher end wild Salmons in the marketplace, with color, flavor, and silkiness. The Tasmanian Atlantic Salmon have a naturally derived color and sugar content that caramelizes phenomenally with a brilliant center of the plate presentation. Prepare Tasmanian Atlantic Salmon with the same care and application as wild Alaskan species. The results are astounding, and the availability is much more consistent.
