We have finished the case of Monk Fish and I am going to order another next time I order as everyone that ate them here thought they were good and a friend ordered a case and he says he also gets Alantic Cod fillets from them that are great so I will try some of those too, I do not like fish that tastes fishy and I will not eat fresh water fish that taste like mud from Thailand contaminated water ponds.

if you buy it fresh, it is a great fish, but frozen does ruin the taste

I have been eating very fresh fish straight off the boats for the last two months, what a difference!

we went to a so-called good restaurant and the fish had no taste. They admitted it was frozen; you can get used to tasty things!
