Gabrielle Stommel

Gabe the Fish Babe is a modern-day mermaid, an inspired seafood blogger and a young fishmonger of fresh, day-boat New England species. She comes from a long line of seafaring Cape Codders, but it is her daily job that tunes her into the intricacies of the seafood industry from ocean to plate. She encourages individuals to expand their minds and mouths to local, abundant, underutilized seafood and in doing so hopes to bring awareness of a creature on the brink of extinction: the American commercial fisherman.

Gabrielle Stommel is a food writer and world traveller born and raised in Woods Hole. She has worked extensively in the seafood industry and leans towards a pescatarian / vegetarian diet. She works to bridge the gap between social, health and environmental issues in relation to the food we eat.
