Fresh Fish
March 30, 2009
Holy cow, fresh fish!! Are you for real……..
Yes we have been getting fresh fish recently. This might sound strange but believe me it is not easy to get fresh fish from the local area as you may have read in my earlier post how hard is it to get fresh fish?
Just recently we have been getting a regular supply from the local fish market at Rosslyn Bay fishermans market in Yeppoon, delivered to my chef’s kitchen.
Chef Kenny has been busy with the scaling and filleting of the fish.
We have had a supply of Red Jew, Red Emperor and Rossy Job. All of which have great eating qualities.
We spend considerable time preparing the fish and then freeze our product. The required amount is then left out for our service in the evening which features on the menu.
Ever changing daily fish creations are available for the customers to enjoy, don’t forget that the fish is fresh and local from our waters, not imported from wherever!!!!!!!!!!
Enjoy your catch of the day

There’s something about preparing this product, I find it to be one of those things that I never get bored from. Taking a raw fish and preparing it for the table is one of those primal chef jobs we never really get a chance to do anymore. Most kitchens will buy portion controled, pre prepared products due to lack of skill base. There are very few chefs who can do this, or more likley, can be bothered to do this! It’s bloody hard work, dirty and sweaty, but so much fun! I’ve got the scars to prove it!
How true you are. Most will buy the frozen portions of fish, A because it’s convenient, B because they don’t know how to prepare fresh fish and C because they can’t be bothered. Great attributes of a wanabe chef…..NOT
