Zagat Review

"Incredibly wonderful seafood. Order all your fresh and frozen fish from them. Known for their cocktail shrimp. It does not get better than this. This is definitely the place to go when you are entertaining and want the very best.” -Susan Monday, Zagat Atlantic Seafood Market - Best New England Clam Chowder in CT

Supercharge Your Brain With Omega 3s!

We all know that seafood tastes great, but did you also know that it's good for your health too? We know, we know, if it tastes good it can't be good for you, but in this case, we've found a tasty exception to that rule.  Recent studies conducted in Europe have shown that mothers who have a diet rich in omega 3 fatty acids, especially those mothers who get their omega 3s from seafood, are much more likely to have intelligent and social children.1 Once born, these children were found to consistently score higher on verbal intelligence tests and to have mastered motor skill tasks more quickly and efficiently as compared to children whose mothers did not have a seafood-rich diet. As if these discoveries aren't reason enough for young women to start getting more fish into their diets, it has also been found that women who eat fish regularly have a much smaller chance of developing postpartum depression than women who do not consume fish and seafood products.1Always remember though, too much of anything is not good for you, so while seafood is an important part of an expectant mother's diet, it is important to not go too overboard and to avoid seafood with higher mercury levels.
