BRIAN'S 100 Best '19

BRIAN’S 100 BEST ’19: WHIPPED MACKEREL at SAINT JULIVERT FISHERIE

I’m counting down the 100 best dishes I tasted in 2019…

Mackerel is not usually thought of as a luxury fish, but when served by Saint Julivert Fisherie in their upscale bar setting, it is lavish. Somewhere between the texture of hummus and mashed potatoes, this smooth smoky fish purée spreads beautifully on substantial grilled bread and is a lavish beginning to a refined seafood meal.  Price: $11
