And one thing that’s never in short supply here is seafood! Come with me as I have endless seafood and go on a fish market tour in Miami, Florida! Today, I’d be linking up with my fellow Miami foodie Kiko to go on a tour and have an outrageous seafood extravaganza at Fresh Florida Fisheries, an amazing fish market and kitchen in town. It’s stone crab season, which is a South Florida specialty! MY TRAVEL/FOOD BLOG: https://davidsbeenhere.com/ DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH: https://teespring.com/stores/davids-been-here Inside, I met the owner, Ozzie, who showed us a frozen hogfish and took it into the back to de-scale and clean it. I had scales flying all over me! Then they fry it with no batter! Next, we saw the stone crab claws. They crack them for you! You can buy whatever you want from the market and they’ll cook it for you in the kitchen! They have tons of different types of fish, shrimp, conch, lobster, and more. We watched them cook up the minuta fish and fry the hogfish. They also made conch fritters and put the butterflied minuta (or yellowtail) in a sandwich. At our table, we had jumbo, large, and medium stone crab claws; the fried hogfish; lobster croquetas, conch fritters, fried shrimp, tostones (fried plantains), and the minuta sandwich. The knuckle meat of the stone crab claws is so succulent and buttery. It’s so sweet and tasty. It’s a South Florida tradition to eat them on New Years. The smaller the claw, the more shell you’ll get, and the less meat you’ll get. I loved them with the mustard sauce!
