In honor of Labor Day, we will be laboring (actually, labouring … you Yanks and your quaint spelling conventions) from 10:00 a.m. until 5:00 p.m for all your seafood needs. Come by and see us!

How about a delicious Japanese salt-grilled Salmon? Shiozake (塩鮭) takes just three ingredients, and comes out flavorful and moist but with crisp skin — perfect with a salad or late summer veggies! And here’s our recipe: thedistrictfishwife.com/post/shiozake

💥MONKFISH IN THE CASES💥 One of the ugliest fish in the sea is also one of the tastiest! Monkfish has a mild taste and texture so similar to lobster that they’re sometimes called “the poor man's lobster.” So drop by, say hi, and give your tastebuds a treat!

We got Monkfish Liver along with our Monkfish this weekend. Called the “Foie Gras of the Seas,” it has a delicious creamy flavor that’s not at all “fishy.” Prepare it like you would Foie, or make Ankimo (鮟肝), a Japanese delicacy and No. 32 on CNN’s “The World's 50 Best Foods.”

Psssttt … Bristol Bay Salmon Week is coming to DC September 19-23, and we along with several other restaurants & markets will be featuring some amazing salmon direct from Alaska’s Bristol Bay. Drop by and support Wild Salmon and American fisheries!

To celebrate Bristol Bay Salmon Week we’re featuring Wild Alaskan Sockeye Salmon in our Special Donburi Bowl: Delicious Salmon on a bed of fluffy rice, with house-made Asian pickled veggies and a soy-ginger-sesame dressing. Grab a fork and support this important American fishery!

We’re just gonna put this right here: tastingtable.com/1000266/why-yo…

Why yes, yes it still is Bristol Bay Salmon Week in DC. And yes, yes we are still carrying the most amazing tasting wild Salmon fresh from Alaska. And yes, yes it could actually be on your table in less than an hour after you pop by and grab some. Your turn …

“Dear Fishwife, we know it’s Bristol Bay Salmon Week, and we love their wild Alaska Salmon, but frankly we’ve been there done that with salmon recipes. Signed, Ennui in Eckington” Dear Eck, we’ll just leave this Salmon Grilled Cheese with Green Apple right here …

Thank you Sen. Lisa Murkowski for your continued support for #BristolBay salmon and commitment to durable safeguards for the region. We look forward to seeing your next steps to ensure #PebbleMine cannot return in the future. #NotHereNotEver

Problem: Cold and wet Ian remnants. Solution: a delicious, warming, traditional Chowder, Thai Tom Yam Kung Soup (Tom Yom Goong, ต้มยำกุ้ง), Scallop and Carrot Soup, or Salmon Soup. Come by and see us — we’ll hook you up.

Most scallop recipes involve pan searing or sautéing; but steaming is a refreshing change, locks in all the juices, and doesn't involve oil or butter. And here’s our recipe to get you started: thedistrictfishwife.com/post/tangerine…

Can you believe it’s already National Salmon Day again? Neither can we! If you forgot to buy your loved one a present, come by and see us … we can help you out. No judgment.

💥 Announcing: the Fish Bowl!💥 Pan-seared seafood (Atlantic Salmon, Fish of the Day, or Shrimp) on a bed of Mixed Greens and Quinoa, with a selection of house-made Pickled Veggies dresses in either a Cilantro Lime Sauce or Soy-Ginger-Sesame. Super tasty and super healthy!

Scallop risotto with lemon butter. Perfect for a Sunday afternoon. Thanks for the always amazing scallops @dcfishwife! @ Bloomingdale Neighborhood, N.W. instagram.com/p/CnKwUmKpCFr/…

Hope you don't mind, but we're in our fish and chips era. 🐟️🍟 📸: @dcfishwife + @aboveground_dc
