Monahan's is not only the best fishmonger in town, it's also the best seafood restaurant. They'll cook anything out of the case for you on the spot for the cost of the fish. Mike Monahan is the culinary brains behind Monahan's. He not only knows his fish, he also knows a ton of seafood recipes. Take a close look at their case, because you never know what you'll find in that day, such as the fresh bonito...
I usually experience bonito as the dried fish shavings used to make Japanese broths used for soups. This time I got to try it fresh, seared on the outside, raw on the inside, and served with soysauce.
Absolutely fricking amazing.
