I'm not that down on some farmed salmon, especially if it's fresh...but it is quite a different (much blander) taste from the wild stuff. In some dishes, bland is OK, especially if yer crusting it or using sauces where the fish is as much a vehicle for the sauce than the absolute focus of the dish. But for a straight up presentation with broiling or grilling, the wild salmon is much better, IMHO. I agree, it's getting very hard to obtain good fresh fish in any locale away from the sea, unless you pull in some freshwater catch yerself. Shades is right that the overwhelming proportion of seafood served or sold in the US is from farmed sources overseas, especially Asia and particularly China. It's a trend that will reverse eventually, when transport costs rise too high due to oil shortages. Hopefully our nest won't be irreversibly fouled at that point, but I'm not keeping my hopes high on that point.

Oh yeah, and Red Lobster sucks. Support yer local non-chain seafood restaurant, small is beautiful!
