The price of orata is €14, the price of branzino is €15, the price of sogliola is €24

Orata: Gilt-head Seabream (Sparus aurata) - Gilt-head seabreams are very popular in Italian fish markets, and along with sole fish, among the fisrt to be fed to small children.

Branzino/Spigola: European Seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) - This fish has come under increasing pressure from commercial fishing, and has recently become the focus of a conservation effort by recreational anglers. In Italy the seabass is subject of intensive breeding in salt waters. Some sustainable Branzino aquaculture farms raise their precious fish inland, far from coastal waters where wild fish feed and breed. But this raises the question of refuse disposal.

Sogliola: Common, Atlantic or Dover Sole (Solea solea) - Sole play a starring role on the Italian dinner table, and are among the first fish most Italian kids eat. Scrupulous mothers prepare it 'al piatto' (cooked between two plates over boiling water), my mini-gourmet prefers it floured and quickly sauteed in butter, alla mugnaia, the Italian equivalent of the French meuniere.
