A bad batch of mussels from a new supplier nearly shut us down last Friday

We got a delivery from a vendor in Seattle we hadn't used before, and by 2 PM, three separate tables sent back our moules frites saying the shellfish tasted off. I pulled the whole case, about 15 pounds, and sure enough, they had a faint ammonia smell. Had to 86 the dish and apologize to a packed dining room. Has anyone else had a close call with a new seafood source and how do you vet them?

My buddy's food truck almost got shut down over shrimp like that.

Did @evah40's buddy have the health inspector show up too?
