Off Topic - Seafood / Fish Market in Portland Metro area???

From EricArden on 2/26/2011 9:27:38 AM

Looking for a good Seafood / Fish Market in the Portland Metro area.

Only stipulation is I don't want it to be funky and weird like an Asian market like Fubon.

I'm looking for a normal Fish Market that carries fresh fish, crabs, bivalves and everything else.

In Seattle there is that market were they throw the fish around. Looking for something as close to that as possible.

Any ideas???

Believe it or not, there is a great seafood market in Ridgefield, WA.........right next to the East Fork Winery (which regularly features bluegrass and Americana music).

Here is the link: pacificnwbest.com/

NE sandy. around 52nd or so. going East it would be on the South side of the street about a block b4 the bike shop which is on the North side. At 5 it turns into a restaurant. Can't remember the name. Used to be a restaurant named Violets. Eat more fish, pick more.

The place mentioned by Emerson Christoff is called Cabezon. I have never been to it, but a friend lives nearby and I see it often enough to remember the name.

I'll check both of those two places. They both have good reviews.
Vancouver, WA and surrounding areas have some good stuff too not just Portland.
I'm from NY so finding good hot dogs from a butcher took forever!!!
I tried Gartners, Ottos, International Meats, and a few other places. Every place had decent jerky and steaks, but sausage is more difficult to do. Especially something as ambiguous as a hot dog.
Butcher Boys in Vancouver has the most authentic NY hot dogs in the area.
You can def tell they use quality brisket to make those dogs as well as real smoke and sheep casings.
