I went to a great Italian restaurant a few months ago, in San Francisco. Perbacco has a great assortment of crudo (the Italian take on sushi), but this scallop version is my favorite. What to buy: The Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Seafood Watch program recommends avoiding wild-caught sea scallops from the mid-Atlantic. Read more Instead, go for wild-caught sea scallops from the northeast Atlantic or Canada. Make sure to buy the freshest scallops you can find, and let your fishmonger know you’ll be serving them raw so he or she gives you a top-quality selection. See less
