Q & A with Claringbold's Seafood at Prahran Market

All over Australia , we airfreight the best fresh produce from all over Australia.

What makes you different from other similar stores?

We have consistency of quality fresh seafood all year around.

What's your favourite meal / recipe?

Too many to choose from , I would say Bass Groper is a definate favourite of mine.

What’s something that few people know about buying from you?

I am very fussy when it comes to purchasing fresh seafood daily. Only the very best will end up at Claringbolds.

Best thing to buy from your store in winter?

Oysters are great this time of the year.
