$18,000 of Fish, Delivered Every Week: A Day At Austin's Freshest Seafood Restaurant | Bon Appétit

[@Cadriul]

I really like how he shows how he does things and then explains WHY he does them. The why is just as important as the how i feel.

[@WorldWideWanderin]

We are huge fans of Este and his other restaurant Suerte! Chef Fermin is putting upscale Mexican cuisine on the map here in Austin.

[@AstroNope1]

I love the fact that he talked about the money, transparency is real with this one.

[@jacobjuenger4454]

Love the atmosphere in the kitchen and the way they handle things. Fermin seems like a great EC!

[@ethansuprinski137]

Salt water trout lmfaoooooooooooo

[@danab4337]

He/Chef seems like he Truly loves what he does and working with the crew. They also seem happy and respectful to the chef too. I'm a seafood lover and Can't wait to try this place.

[@troll2637]

Is chef a pronoun now? I thought everything stopped at zhey/zhem.

[@danab4337]

@@troll2637 haha 😄 👍

[@ninaoz1224]

Every single time I have visited Este the food and the service has been amazing! Nothing I have had has been bad, and they have found a way to make a Kale Salad that is beautiful and not bitter. The fish is buttery and soft, drinks are top notch and the desserts are legit (spicy margarita). If you want to make life a little easier, make reservations a couple weeks in advance. 10/10

[@rjmjjmw]

One of the best yet. Like the head chef’s approach and attitude.

[@justinliberti5917]

what a personable and knowledgeable chef. His team seems well lead

[@prunoki1]

kinda cute that he checks the trout and talks about the smell of the sea :-)

[@stevenkim6869]

Buy fresh?

[@Warner-b7s]

Be grateful and be gentle when you meet.

[@bossman674]

This restaurant must be cleaning up if they’re spend $15-$18k weekly on fish alone… huge numbers!

[@jackylee8901]

Suggestion. Can you guys link the restaurant's website in the description? Not that it's hard to find with the name but mind as well since you're featuring them.

I love the restaurants name! It looks really nice as well. Would love to try it whenever I visit Texas.

at $98 for a 1.5lb cod fish you should have no trouble making your payroll.

[@CaydeSmax]

i can't get my head around 18k in fish in 2 and half days lol must be charging a fair bit for the food then :D looks delish ! nice vid !

[@ArielK1987]

I agree 100% but obviously it has to do with the location of the restaurant as well as the type of seafood and how much they get. But still unique thing to do.

[@Arrynek01]

It is a pretty big restaurant. They serve lunch and dinner. Grilled Squid is 28 Bucks. Fish 18-28. A single cocktail 16 Dollars. It isn`t a cheap restaurant by any measure, but the volume they operate at, and the popularity of it... Makes the numbers make sense. Now, were it a 3x Micheline restaurant that does 30 covers per day paying 18 grand for fish for weekend, that would be insane. 200+ on the books for one evening service AND expected 60 walk-ins. That`s just insane numbers.

[@lysolmax]

They literally show the menu for everything they talk about... they charger $98 for cod which is insane

It's called elitism. I could never ever afford that. Not even afford the scraps on my salary.

[@13sangita]

It's a seafood restaurant serving many people so it's a given that seafood will have higher spending

[@nightfish1234]

And your point is?

[@ThoreauMyLifeAway]

I still wouldn’t eat fish in Texas. If he’s smelling that fish so hardcore that’s like weird sign. I’ve always lived on the coasts and the sniffing isn’t that hardcore. He makes me nervous.

[@camilaodom1344]

Honestly I looked up how much the Murray cod cost and it was at least $50 per fish then plus the specialized prep, ingredients, and cook time that’s not a bad markup for a nice restaurant
