Eat Great Seafood
Settle For Nothing Less
Across the United States, there are plenty of fresh fish markets you can visit to get some of the day’s best catches. But what are the best markets out there? Keep reading to find out about this country’s best fresh fish markets.
We begin our ‘trip’ in New England at the Browne Trading Company in Portland, Maine. They are a highly regarded company by the New York Times and by several celebrity chefs, including Daniel Boulud and Eric Ripert. At their headquarters you’ll find the Browne Trading Market that showcases fresh local Maine fish, and various fish from around the globe. If you’re in the area, don’t forget to check out their Grab and Go items that you can take home for lunch or even dinner that evening. Check out their website here.
Next, we’ll head down to the Gulf Coast to visit Joe Patti’s Seafood. This Pensacola, Florida staple has been around since the early 1930’s, when Joe and his wife, Anna, sold fish from their front porch. Not only will you find their fresh catches at their market, but they also house a gourmet deli, wine shop, and sushi bar. Really want to try their fish, but not planning a trip to Florida any time soon? No problem! Just head to their website to have some of their foods overnighted to you. You can have a little bit of Florida without having to leave the comfort of your own home.
Lastly, we’ll travel to the state of Washington and visit the world famous Pike Place Fish Market. This fish market isn’t just known for their fresh fish and open air market in the center of Seattle; it’s the fishmonger crew that draws in people from around the world. These guys have fun and it shows! At Pike’s you can get the best seafood in the world and have it shipped to your house.
Hope you enjoyed this ‘trip’; now get off the couch and get out there!
