catch of the day


Explanation:
Very common phrase in English. Refers to either the entire haul of fish, or can be used to describe the best fish from the entire haul, depending on how you phrase it. Either way, the "catch of the day" implies that the fish are freshly caught, and therefore better than fish caught yesterday.

http://www.steakhousevt.com/ - "The Steak Houses Chef purchases the freshest local produce, the best of the catch of the
day (often flown in from the coast), and hand-cuts the finest steaks."

http://www.indigoguide.com/spain/cambrils-night-life.htm - "You can still see the public fish auctions even today; and you can bet your bottom dollar that the cream of the catch will be going to the Michelin-rated restaurants which have put this town firmly on the map of the culinary world."

agree  James McVay: This is right on if Белое море is a restaurant.

  -> "Catch of the Day" does show up on restaurant menus a lot, but I would still "catch" instead of "fish" for marketing language.

top choice seafood


Explanation:
If it were not for the word "настоящее", I would use "seafood selection", but this word seems to put emphasis on the quality of the offer rather than the width of its range.
