While New York has witnessed a flourishing of artisanal butcher shops, the number of local fish purveyors has diminished, despite the city’s proximity to the Atlantic Ocean. Our aim is to help diversify the local food economy and revive the city’s connection with its neighboring ocean.
To do this, OSAKANA will not only offer a seasonal selection of local seafood for customers to purchase, but it will also provide a community space in which people can learn more about these ingredients through discussions, meals, tastings, and classes. In Japanese, osakana means to "honor your fish (お魚を大切に)." Our hope is to embody this precept to the fullest.
