Our unique seafood offerings include specialties not widely available elsewhere.
- Our Gulf White Shrimp and Key West Pink Shrimp are wild caught and sustainably harvested. Many shrimp products are chemically treated to add water weight or extend their shelf-life and appearance, but these shrimp are completely chemical free.
- Langoustines are often confused with lobster. They are similar in appearance, but much smaller and actually a different species. Commonly found in the North Atlantic Ocean, langoustines (also known as Norway lobster, Dublin Bay prawn, and scampi) are highly prized for their delicate, sweet, and succulent flesh. They can be cooked in a variety of ways, including boiling, grilling, or sautéing. They are delicious simply served with melted butter or a garlic sauce.
- Spanish octopus , sourced from the nutrient-rich waters off Spain’s Atlantic coast, is prized for its exceptional quality and flavor. Its tender texture and rich, unique taste have made it a staple in Mediterranean cuisine. Whether grilled, roasted, or simmered in a savory stew, Spanish octopus's natural succulence makes it a perfect canvas for a variety of dishes. Cooked octopus legs are a great convenience. Buying whole octopus can be economical. Either product allows you to create a restaurant-quality experience right in your own kitchen.
- Sardines and anchovies are oily fish with tender flesh and rich flavor. These flavorful fish also deliver essential nutrients, including omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin D, and calcium. Our whole sardines and anchovies are hand-selected by Spanish chefs for best quality and frozen for convenience.
- Our wild-caught Thai squid (loligo formosana) has earned a global reputation for being the most tender squid you can buy. Squid is an incredibly versatile cephalopod that's popular in many cuisines around the world. Often called calamari, squid is protein packed and low in fat, with a mild, slightly sweet taste that pairs well with a variety of seasonings and sauces.
