What is the 200 level spiel for the Moonfish?
Moonfish live in Hawaii’s Deep Ocean Region. The floor of these deep waters consists of ancient volcanoes, which act as a massive filtration system creating some of the cleanest waters on the planet. Moonfish are notoriously difficult to catch. We receive our Moonfish less than 24 hours from the water. We hand and age the fish for 3 days and serve it thinly sliced.
Then beneath the slices of Moonfish you will find gooseberries, smoked tomatoes, horseradish cream, and a vinaigrette of passionfruit, ahi Amarillo chili, and tomato seeds. To finish, we are using one of the rarest salts in the world, the Asian Tabuok. This dinosaur egg looking salt is a near extinct art form made by one family in the Philippines of the Central Visayas Region. It takes almost 6 months to make just one of these salts. It adds a beautiful fruity and smoky flavor to the moonfish.
Sungold and persimmon tomatoes are from Munak Ranch, Paso Robles California.
