Advice
Finding
Fresh Fish
..and preparing it at Home. Ranch 99 Market (Milpitas Square
Center, Barber Road, Milpitas) had the largest selection of all,
with clean live tanks. On many days, Pei says it's the best place
to go for fresh caught fish on ice, but we visited on a day between
shipments so the quality varied.
