Pond Boss Forums INTRO Questions & Observations SWAI FISH

Your Asian catfish call Swai are a very good mild tasting fish. Here is a little history of Swai from a restaurant manager of Beef O' Brady in Florida. Years ago Swai was sold undetected by customers as the excellent tasting, expensive grouper in some Florida restaurants. Grouper market and fishermen protested to the FL State government and USDA or whoever is in charge of commercial fish sales in FL. Law determined and ruled in favor of the Grouper sales market. Then the Swai was rebranded as "Farm Raised Grouper". All I know is the Swai is very mild and good tasting fish. Captain D's restaurant chain also sells Swai which they often call white fish. .I have eaten Swai a lot of times and have never had a off flavored fillet. It is especially tasty when served blackened at Beef O' Brady's.
