According to their website, “The owners are a happy couple. They love to eat. They visited a Chinese Sauerkraut Fish restaurant in Guangzhou, China and found it amazing! So they decided to open the restaurant in the Seattle area.
They know live fish taste different!! It is always hard to find a live fish resource. They spend almost a year to find the right farm to supply the fish. The fish must be very healthy and happy so it will taste good. Luckily, they found it! The Dutchboy Farm in Idaho! The owner John knows fish better than anyone.
They know how important consistency is for the customers. They want customers to be able to get the same flavor every time they visit the store. They are working hard to create the standard of how to cook the fish. Believe me, you can cook in our kitchen as well if you follow the standard.
