Vancouver, BC | Join the Slow Food / Slow Fish movement and eight mystery chefs on Saturday, September 27th at the Pacific Institute of Culinary Arts, just off Granville Island, for a Slow Fish Mystery Dinner. Start your evening with canapés and libations, and then move though the school’s eight professional teaching kitchens to meet mystery chefs, visiting from BC and beyond, who will each offer a tasting-sized portion of sustainable and lesser-known local seafood delicacies for you to try.

Chefs’ Table Society member, Slow Fish member, and Fish Counter co-owner/chef Robert Clark has been evangelizing sustainability in seafood since 1998 and is spearheading this event along with Pacific Institute of Culinary Arts executive chef, and Chefs’ Table Society member Julian Bond. At its heart the event is intended to raise awareness for Slow Fish and its role in protecting our oceans. The Chefs’ Table Society has a mandate to support BC producers and sustainable food production, and is happy to present this event.

Tickets are available here for $79 +fees, and include the reception, samples and beverages, and the chance to interact with eight acclaimed chefs, who will only be revealed to you once you are there. There are only 100 tickets for sale, so seafood lovers are advised to act now and not miss what is sure to be an exciting and delicious affair.

ABOUT THE FISH COUNTER

IMG_4105

At The Fish Counter, our goal is to provide sustainable, healthy, and high-quality seafood to the Main Street community. And we’re all Ocean Wise. We focus on local and seasonal seafood from producers who care as much about the health of our oceans as we do. Think of us as your farmers’ market, for seafood. We offer a selection of take out items like fish and chips, soups and chowders, fish tacos, and oyster po’ boys. Our coolers are teeming with salsas, aioli, dips, spreads and broths in reusable mason jars. We have an ever-changing array of ready-made items to take home and heat up for busy families. Healthy, ocean-friendly and delicious.

The Fish Counter is a place that serves the whole community. We want you to feel comfortable coming in, whether you are buying a small piece of fish, grabbing a chowder to go, or just want to get out of the rain and learn more about sustainable seafood. Mike and Rob are here to help.
