Caviarteria: The Finest Caviar from Around the World
Filed under: Dining
Humans have enjoyed caviar for thousands of years since the dawn of recorded history. Ancient Egyptians, Phoenicians and Greeks were among the first to harvest sturgeon roe; the English word caviar traces its roots to the Persian term meaning cake of power.
Caviarteria is a nominee for a Luxist Award in the Best Caviar Retailer category.
Perhaps these ancient purveyors would be shocked to learn that, after many years selling caviar through bricks-and-mortar U.S. outlets across the United States from Las Vegas to Miami, the vaunted purveyor Caviarteria has streamlined itself into a completely virtual operation. Fortunately for modern consumers, the new method is just as effective.
Still family-owned and operated, Caviarteria offers a wide range of Iranian caviar, including Sevruga, Osetra and Golden Imperial, in addition to roe from Russia, Bulgaria and the United States. Caviar ranges from Russian Sevruga to Bulgarian Osetra. Caviarteria also offers American Sturgeon caviar, salmon roe and trout roe. There's a selection of other delicacies, including foie gras, smoked salmon, salmon tenderloin "czar cut", smoked trout, gravlax, and smoked sturgeon. Furthermore, due to popular demand, Caviarteria is bringing back it's famous 3 layer smoked salmon and caviar cake.
