Wild fresh fish market report 09/03/2010

Decent market on Plymouth.. more bass, squid, brill and lemons.. all coming off dayboats. Plenty of flounder still about and some good jumbo pollack.
Down in Looe today it's mainly lemons and line-caught mackerel. On the farmed side of things, salmon is rising like crazy.. up 50p per kg on last week's price. We are running some great specials for the week. Please click this link for further details http://www.new-wave.co.uk/seasonal.php

Disappointing news about farmed seatrout

Unfortunately the one and only seatrout farm in the UK has been forced to stop production due to a disease in a nearby salmon farm. QA fish of Sheltland had been producing a fabulous product, which would have been available from now until the autumn. We were so confident about this product that we put it on our calender. Apologies for this, no-one saw this coming. We're trying to find a replacement as we speak, so watch this space. Wild starts properly in June

New Wave at Thyme cookery school

Oz Harbor, one of our principal filleters and account manager teamed up with Bob Parkinson of 'Made by Bob' for his fish cookery class at the newly opened Thyme at Southrop. Bob cooked a fabulous array of seafood for the class including red mullet, bass, oysters and scallops.Oz has been responsible for training many of the up-and-coming New Wave filleters. At New Wave, we are dedicated to preparing fish properly and treating the product with the respect it deserves.

New Wave at Le Manoir

Gary Jones looks on as Oz fillets a whole cod at Le Manoir aux Quat' Saisons back in November. We spent the afternoon there, demonstrating how we fillet certain species, and providing training for some of their junior staff. A good day was had by all.

New Wave...new Italian range

Our speciality team is constantly looking to improve our range. We have recently discovered a wonderful Italian supplier, bringing superb products direct from producers in the Puglia and Tuscany regions. We're able to offer top-quality produce - including delicious grilled artichokes in oil, sunblushed tomatoes, olives, oils and vinegars and seafood salad - just like Mama used to make. Contact Rob or Grant for more details on (01285) 715160.

New Wave 20th anniversary party

We were delighted to celebrate our 20th anniversary back in September. It was a great occasion, starting with an open day at New Wave and then back to Poulton house, where New Wave was born, for a fabulous lunch cooked by Bob and his team from Made By Bob.

New Wave at Rungis market

A night at Rungis in Paris is such an eye-opener. 15,000 people work there every night. You can eat a shellfish platter at midnight and then go and choose your produce.You'd be lucky to fit it all in within 6 hours and then you have to slog it back to the ferry. We've done many trips there, but have now set up with a superb mushroom wholesaler and a great poultry supplier.
The fish-hall is also first class, when we go we pick up Fin de Clare oysters, sardines and anchovies and various seafood delicatessen products such as brown shrimp .
We also have a regular fish and shellfish supplier on Rungis who can give us a daily delivery.
