Tonight's Catch of the Day

Striped Bass

Wild striped bass swims the waters along the East Coast. It is much larger than the farmed variety, with strong black stripes from gills to tail. Moderately fatty, wild striped bass has a rich flavor and a large, firm flake. The farmed version is milder, has a nice texture, and is more readily available and consistently fresh.
Both farmed and wild striped bass are sustainable seafood choices. For case-by-case help with sustainable seafood choices, you can always refer to the online guide maintained by the Monterey Bay Aquarium.

Chef Ben will be preparing another Culinary masterpiece with this delightful Fish fresh in today.

Come and taste the magic !!
