Blackfish tasting at Blackfish tonight

Every Tuesday, Blackfish (119 Fayette St.), the highly praised Conshohocken BYOB from Chip Roman (also of Mica in Chestnut Hill and Queen Village's upcoming Ela), presents a $45 ingredient-themed tasting in addition to its regular dinner menu. Tonight, chef Steve Howell presents four courses highlighting the restaurant's namesake.

For those curious about the cold-water blackfish, found abundantly along Northeast coast, Howell describes it as "a mild, white-flesh fish that's flaky but not dry," while Roman likens it to sea bass. The tasting will feature blackfish crudo with daikon radish, yuzu and cilantro; crispy blackfish paired with butternut squash; blackfish bouillabaisse; and tart citron for dessert.

Next Tuesday, Howell will get cozy with a fall-inflected menu showcasing venison. Call 610-397-0888 to reserve.
