Daily Product Offering
Fresh Local Fluke/ Flounder
Fluke/Flounder is a mild tasting flatfish. This fish is readily available through the year. Quality flounder is easy to recognize. Fresh flounder never smells fishy, and the eyes should appear bright and clear, almost alive. The gills should be reddish, and the skin moist and with tightly adhering, shiny scales. Fresh flounder flesh should still be lightly coated with transparent slime; white slime is a sign the fish is too old. It is a great fish for broiling in a variety of recipes as well as frying. Try our flounder stuffed with crabmeat (our own famous recipe) when you have us prepare your next meal.
