How do I know if the fish is fresh?
To assure the freshness of the fish, the chefs will hopefully inspect it vigilantly, looking for a few things:
The eyes should be clear.
The gills should be bright red, no slime.
The scales should not come off easily.
When you press the fish, the skin should "bounce back" as if one pressed one's own forearm or cheeks.
It should *not* have any fishy smell.
