We
have
decided to ban
all endangered
species of fish from our menus. Working closely with the Marine
Conservation
Society we are now using only fish from sustainable stocks that have
been
caught using methods which minimize damage to the environment.
Obviously some
familiar names
will be absent from our menus; no more cod, monkfish, halibut, hake,
skate and
many more, but we are replacing them with lesser known fish such as
megrim,
catfish and pollack which are just as delicious and are from
sustainable
stocks. There are still many types of well-known fish too, like line
caught sea
bass, soles, turbot, red mullet, sea bream, sardines and almost all
shellfish,
that we can use. It is just a question of being selective.
This
is our way of trying to preserve some of the endangered fish stocks -
we hope
you will agree with us, and if you do, then talk about it, so that
little by
little we may increase awareness of the situation and, eventually, stop
the
trawlers annihilating our fish stocks.
