BEACH SEAFOOD MARKET: "MARKET & RESTAURANT" Top 5 Page for this destination Fort Myers Beach Shopping Tip by LoriPori

Our friend Dana took us to BEACH SEAFOOD MARKET to get some jumbo shrimp for an appetizer before dinner. What a neat place. On one side (right) is the Market where all sorts of fresh fish and seafood is displayed. On the other is the restarant part where you can pick out your own fish and have it cooked for you. Behind the glass wall at the restaurant part you can watch as shrimp is processed and packaged. There is also a display of all kinds of fish on ice.
There are all kinds of brochures on how to cook local fish and some recipes. Also there are shelves full of shrimp and seafood sauce and seasonings.
Types of local fish:
Grouper: is excellent cooked any way. Fry, bake or on the grill
Snapper: cooks best broiled or baked
Swordfish: is excellent cooked on the grill. Marinate in teriyaki sauce.
Tuna: marinate in Italian dressing and either grill, broil or bake
Tile Fish: can be baked, broiled or fries and is good in chowders or fish salad
Dolphin: the "fish" not Flipper the "mammal" can be baked, broiled, pan fried, deep fried or in foil on the barbeque
Cobia: has a firm white meat and is excellent deep fried or cooked on the grill
