THE FISH LIST PORTAL

Meet Fishmonger V - Rookie

Meet Vic

Fishmonger. Former Bus Driver. Quick Study with a Sharp Blade and Sharper Wit.

Born in Cyprus, raised in the UK, and now calling Wilmington’s home, Vic is the newest member of the team—but you wouldn’t know it by watching her work. Though she may carry the “rookie” title, she moves with the confidence and precision of someone who’s already lived three careers. Because she has.

Before entering the world of seafood, Vic drove double-decker buses through London’s busiest streets—navigating roundabouts, rush hour, and the occasional tourist mishap like a seasoned pro. When the buses broke down? She rolled up her sleeves, grabbed her tools, and fixed them herself. Vic brings that same grit, focus, and no-nonsense energy to the fish counter every day.

More Than a Fishmonger

• Zodiac sign: Capricorn—focused, determined, and constantly chasing the next challenge.

• Fun fact: She once had a cat named Horse. Why? She’s not telling.

• Flavor profile: Bold. Spicy. Never bland.

• Least favorite food: Okra. She calls it “nature’s practical joke” and will kindly—but firmly—decline your gumbo if it includes any.

Favorite Fish?

Vic has a thing for Yellowfin Tuna—fast, strong, and unapologetically bold. It’s a fish that matches her energy and spirit: sleek, adventurous, and built for performance.

What She Brings to the Market

Vic works with the urgency of someone who’s out to prove something—but mostly, she just loves the challenge. Whether she’s cutting fish or trading jokes, Vic brings an eclectic energy to the table that’s unmistakably her own.

Just don’t offer her okra. Seriously.
