Oyster and Champagne bar opens in Melbourne's CBD - Hospitality Magazine

Jeremy Schinck and Malcolm Singh, the team behind Pinchy's Champagne & Lobster Bar, have opened Pearl Chablis & Oyster Bar in Melbourne's CBD.

The sister venue, located next door, focuses on the harmonious relationship between French Chablis wine and oysters.

"The vision and philosophy of Pearl celebrate their union," says Schinck. "Oysters and Chablis naturally complement each other in their sublime taste, subtle minerality and underpinning saline characteristics."

A collection of 500 Burgandy wines is on offer alongside the largest Chablis collection in the country.

Fresh seasonal oysters are sourced from growers on the oyster coast of NSW which are expertly paired with the right red or white wine to match.

The rock oyster range includes Moonlight flats (Steve Feletti), Wapengo Rocks (Shane Buckley) and Broadwater oysters (Greg Carton & Sue McIntyre).

Pacifics cover Coffin Bay oysters (Benji & Jamie Sellen) and Blackman Bay oysters alongside Angasi Provence oysters (Steve & Yvonne Young), South Coast sea urchins and periwinkles.

Pinchy's Executive Chef Pedro Vicente shucks the oysters on demand, presenting them chilled or grilled straight to the table.

Guests can choose to order the oysters individually or by degustation, as well as other menu highlights such as duck liver parfait, trout rillette, sea bream crudo, beef tartare, and poached Murray cod.

Each month the venue will hone in on one Chablis producer from a range of appellations and vintage bottles (AC Chablis, Premier Cru and Grand Cru) to give diners the opportunity to taste and learn about rare wines.

"Indulgent, rich and delicious, oysters are best enjoyed with a crisp glass of white wine, champagne or beer, as the acidic component delicately balances the creamy flavours that oysters are renowned for," says Schinck.

Pearl Chablis & Oyster Bar is open Wednesday to Sunday from 5pm until 12am.

This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post

This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post This fish is worth $300,000 - New York Post Posted: 05 Jun 2016 12:00 AM PDT With exacting precision, the surgeon inserted the scalpel above the eyeball and cut out a snotty deposit of fatty tissue. The routine eye-lift was nearly complete when suddenly the patient awoke, suffocating, and began to flop about on the table. The audience gasped. Knowing time was of the essence, the surgeon scooped up the patient in his arms, raced across the stage, and dropped her into a tank of water. She revived. Because she was a fish. Yes, fish eye-lifts exist. As do fin jobs and tail tucks. The operating theater was a mall in Jakarta, Indonesia, where a pet expo was under way. As for the patient, she survived, her formerly droopy eyes now bright and perky. A good thing, too, as this was no ordinary goldfish but rather an Asian arowana, the world's most expensive aquarium denizen, rumored to sell for as mu

Catching Dory: selling aquarium fish supports coastal livelihoods in Indonesia | npj Ocean Sustainability - Nature.com

Abstract The global marine aquarium trade has created new local markets across the planet, including in Indonesia, now the second-largest exporting country of marine aquarium fish in the world. Participating in the global aquarium trade has been touted as a potentially sustainable addition to fisher livelihoods, but scant data exist showing the numbers of fish coming off the reef and how those fish contribute to income. To determine how participants in the trade incorporate aquarium species in their livelihoods, we examine source-level aquarium fish collecting and trading data in the Banggai Archipelago, a region in Central Sulawesi that has become a significant source for popular aquarium, also known as ornamental, fish species. Using a sustainable livelihoods lens, we examine this data to understand how participants in the aquarium trade both contribute to as well as benefit from the trade and consider how their participation relates to emerging Blue Justice principles.
