| - I visited Hooked after looking for an ethical seafood shop, and after trying fish supplied by Hooked at a local resto. I walked in a bit nervous, having very little fish cooking experience. In fact, I just recently introduced fish back into my diet after going fishless for years of vegetarianism.
I was half-expecting the staff at Hooked to treat me with a bit of snobbery for not knowing how to order fish, what to ask for, and all those details. I was pleasantly surprised. They were super helpful, super friendly, and most of all, made me feel confident in my fish-cooking abilities as I left the shop. They explained where the fish came from, what method of catch was used, and how I should cook it up. The wonderful woman who was assisting me at the end was also so supportive of my ability to go home and cook a good meal. As I left, she told me, "you're going to rock this meal!" -- I loved it!
The sea bream filets I brought home did taste excellent. I am not yet ready for the big leagues of cooking a bream on a grill, so will next time downsize to either a pan sear or the even safer method - baking. But the quality of the fish was very tasty.
I'll be back for another adventure under the sea soon! :)
