It’s pretty obvious that Long Island is an island (Rhode Island is the only sneaky one).
When you live on an island or in a coastal area there are certain perks you get to enjoy, one being that you’re right by the water. And water means fresh fish. And fresh fish means delicious seafood.
There are plenty of great seafood restaurants in the area, but what if we don’t feel like going out, and just want to sit the family around the table and have a nice, home cooked meal?
Cooking fish isn’t a simple task, and it’s a food where the quality makes or breaks the dish. Bad fish will not only stink up your house, but it will also completely ruin your evening.
We did our best investigative journalism and found ten seafood shops where quality is of the upmost importance. The fish they sell is only the freshest, and some of the places are even frequented by chefs from local restaurants.
In fact, a few of the places are also restaurants, so you can taste how good the seafood is before you make your purchase.
So here are the top ten places to get fish. Whether you want lobster, flounder, shrimp, tuna or tilapia, these shops will be able to supply you with the goods.
The only thing left is the cooking part. That we can’t help you with. Only a cookbook can…
