Seabass…
Chilean Sea Bass are caught in both the eastern & western waters of southern South America and southern South Africa. They dwell at depths of between 5,000 – 6,000 feet deep and are caught by longliners.
Chilean Sea Bass has white flesh with large, tender flakes. Its high fat content keeps it moist during cooking and gives it a rich, moist, tender flavor which melts in your mouth. It has a fabulous taste and a must for your menu.
