Fish Stock in Boston
I'm looking for a place (maybe a restaurant) that will sell me a couple quarts of fish stock for a recipe I'm cooking at home. I love to make the stock, but it's an all-day affair. I had a reliable source in New York City, but now that I've moved here, I'm at a loss.
I tried Summer Shack - i figured it would be easy for them to sell me some, but they were out.
Any ideas?

I have bought frozen fish stock at Whole Foods and I saw it the other day at Formaggio in the South End (cannot comment on quality for that one, but the WF one is fine). I would usually prefer to make my own, but finding good fish carcasses and so on can be a pain these days unless you have a nice local place......

Fish stock generally you cook much less time than meat stocks/broths. You can easily make a stock in an hour and a half, even 45 minutes is fine. That said, the Fishmonger on Huron Ave usually has a freezer full of fish and other seafood stocks, and specializes in this kind of things.
