3. FRESH FISH FROM SEVERAL FARMS
Those with a taste for locally reared fish can have their pick from the various fish farms in Singapore, and with certification, too.

Some of them offer home deliveries too - Ah Hua Kelong delivers fish such as pomfret, grouper, farmed snapper and other seafood such as clams and crab at http://ahhuakelong.com/shop/
Tiberias Harvest, located off the north-east coast of Pulau Ubin, also has an online fish shop at sampancatch.com.
The farm grows a variety of local species such as snapper, grouper and sea bass. Kuhlbarra's fish are ocean-farmed in the Singapore Straits in Pulau Semakau.
Kuhlbarra was a new brand created under local fish farm Barramundi Asia in 2015, when the farm launched its online platform for direct selling to customers at www.kuhlbarra.com.
