Sauté onion, pepper, celery and garlic in olive oil over medium heat until they begin to soften. Add herbs and spices to the pan and continue cooking for another 2 minuets. Add white wine and tomato and simmer for 5 minuets. Combine stock and vegetable mixture in a large saucepan or stock pot with at least 1 gallon capacity. Simmer for 1 hour. Meanwhile, prepare the seafood. Discard top shell and break crab into 4 pieces. Peel and devein the prawns. Scrub clams and mussels. Cut fish into 2" cubes. Rinse crayfish. Bring broth to a brisk simmer, but not a full boil. Put crab and crayfish in broth for 2 minuets. Add remaining items and simmer. If some ingredients are cooked before the rest, remove them. Remove to individual bowls or serve directly from the pot. Serve with crusty french or sour dough bread.
 
NOTE: Call ahead and we will gladly cook and clean crabs, peel and devein prawns, and scrub the mussels.
