JJ McDonnell's Weekly Market Report: 2/3/2012; Treated Escolar Loin from Ecuador is not expected to arrive until April. It's summertime in Ecuador, which means the water is warm ... good for Mahi!

JJ McDonnell's Weekly Market Report: 1/24/2012; The clock is ticking in Atlantic Canada. The Oysters have been living off their own protein for several months now and will soon become too weak to ship. One way to tell is the opacity of the meats. An Oyster that is feeding heavily will appear meaty and have little or no opacity. As was mentioned toward the beginning of the month, our inventory will begin to hold more West Coast product to make sure you have plenty of options to quench your thirst for tasty oysters...
