Expensive Seafood Hamper is carefully balanced
between ready-peeled items and fish still in its shell (less
efficient but an essential element in the excitement). 9.3kgs
of edible weight (15kgs gross), so even the most gluttonous
guests will be sated. (enlarge

Says Fish
Society chairman, James Smith: “Our members
often want a ‘big spread’, and they will find these packs
very convenient. They’d take a long time to make this selection
and would be wondering if they had the balance right. We’ve
done it for them. The price… well, the price is the price.
It’s not difficult to get to these price points if you are
dealing in meaningful amounts of caviar. I can assure you
they are good value.”
The Most
Expensive Seafood Hamper contains 17 kinds of seafood
including 16 inch long giant Siberian crab legs, extra large
crab claws from Chile, freshly cooked native UK lobster, four
kinds of prawns including monstrous prawns from Madagascar
weighing in at half a pound each, assorted more humble but
nevertheless crucial shellfish, and as the magnificent centerpiece,
750g of Sevruga caviar.
Caviar
& Crustacean Blowout and Atomic’ includes double helpings
of caviar and crab leg (11 kg edible weight).
Customers can cook the seafood themselves
or alternatively ask for it to be done before dispatch.
