Fish Prices

I paid R$120 per kilogram today for fresh sea bass filet. And R$95 for fresh salmon filet from Chile.


Are these prices typical in other cities in Brazil?

Sea bass and salmon are the most expensive fish here in Ilhéus. There are many other fish and seafood options at lower prices.

We have a couple of guys that go round houses selling fresh seafood - camarao (shrimp or prawns) are typically R$30-50 / Kg depending on size. They often also have lobster, red snapper, needle fish, and so on... There is also a fishing cooperative here on the island, and you can go there to sellect your own fresh fish, but no fresh salmon here as the water is too warm...

Fresh salmon from Chile is flown into Ilhéus on Thursdays.

Brasilia seems to have a dearth of seafood. We have tilapia and tilapia. Also salmon and rubbery shrimp. It is hardtop find much else, even at the market in Guara. Sushi here is always salmon with cream cheese. Lots of cream cheese at the sushi bars.

I'm surprised you have a dearth of fish and seafood in Brasília. You're a two hour flight from the ocean. Surely there is demand in Brasília, no?
