Stores & Markets in Boca Raton

Mike Montella was not always called Mr. Fish. Though he spent years serving as an advisor to the South Atlantic Fishery Management Council and as a charter-boat captain, the moniker crept up on him slowly as he dreamt of opening his own gourmet seafood shop to fill a void in the local market.

Now in business for more than 25 years, Montella's Mr. Fish brand continues to purvey the freshest seafood, including native stone crabs, lobster, and salmon. Recently joined by trained chef Mrs. Fish, the company has also started to supply a line of prepared foods, sauces, and condiments to complement the oceanic proteins. Additionally, the Fish in a Flash delivery division packs and ships orders to the doors of families and restaurants overnight.

When Dr. Sasson Moulavi worked in an emergency room, he noticed a disturbing trend: heart attacks among people in their 30s and 40s. So the bariatric physician developed a diet program that uses organic ingredients, triple-filtered water, and hunger-controlling foods, such as muffins, shakes, and soups, to help people lose weight. There is even a cookie diet, in which a healthy cookie—formulated to be a perfect balance of fiber, protein, and amino acids—aims to help clients lose several pounds per week.

At Smart For Life offices across the country, nutrition experts and physicians guide patients to healthier lifestyles with the diet products, supervised weight-loss and wellness programs, and complex mazes that lead to bowls of salad. They also slim waists with the help of vitamin B12 injections.
