@chefericripert: Hours before we open our doors, master fish butcher Justo Thomas is preparing 800 to 1,000 pounds of fish. Go behind the scenes to learn about his process. #TBT
Anthony Bourdain wrote about this guy in his book. That was 16 years ago.

This guy is famous in the restaurant world in NYC. Only fish butcher I’ve ever seen featured on the restaurant website, like a chef de cuisine or wine director.
