Michelle - <<OT>> in reality almost all fish imported into the US (including "fresh" and even sushi and sashimi "quality") has been frozen, primarily to kill parasites but also to preserve freshness in transit. I've spoken with sushi masters who can tell the difference in both handling and taste, but the "fresh" sushi I've had (we caught it) didn't seem that much better than what we've been served at the bar in the past (or since). A couple of times, we've brought fish back from trips (on ice the same day) and had our sushi bar prepare it for us and in one case, the chef indicated our Red Snapper was one of the best he had ever come across. But taste is one of those things that is hard to compare over periods of time, especially with foods as delicately flavored as fish. BTW - rule number one from the sushi experts that handle the fish - if you can smell it a foot away, try another fish; if you can smell it at arms length, try another store! :-) Mr. K.
