In many other ways, Aphotic, as a name, was somewhat poetic - it’s a conversation about “bringing to light” underutilized or uncommon fish that are currently not abundant in markets.
Through my travels and many conversations with fisherman, I discovered underutilized fish like the Pacific longnose skate, Pricklebacks, and the giant Pacific octopus fish that did not usually make it to the market. We still had conventional things, like the pelagics (tuna, swordfish, etc), and part of the discovery was finding that transparency for them.
What prompted the idea of your restaurant? Who came up with the name?Īphotic mirrored the mystery inherent to the discovery of the fishermen we would be working with, but also the kinds of fish that we would be targeting as an “alternative” fish concept.
