FISHMONGERS
Rosa, Beppe Benedetto’s great-grandmother, set up the business in 1920, then handed
it over to his grandmother Luigia in 1935. She, in turn, gave way to his mother
Rosangela in 1960, with Beppe finally stepping in in 1984. Since then not only has the
business gained repute (as the list of restaurants it supplies demonstrates), it has also
taken on an ethical dimension based on profound respect for the sea and the protection
of fish stocks. Beppe supports fishing that is sustainable for the ecosystem, respects the
professionalism of fishermen from whom he increasingly buys directly (always paying the
right price), follows the seasons to allow species to reproduce, and encourages customers
and restaurants who share his vision to buy forgotten or underrated species, such as scab-
bard fish. At his stall, you’ll only find freshly caught fish of top quality and certain origin.
All we can do is sit back and applaud.
Closed Sunday and Monday.
