Details:
Fish Tales & Pike Ales, a progressive educational dinner presented by Les Dames d’Escoffier, Seattle Chapter (LDES) will take place on Thursday, September 27, 2012, from 5:30 to 8:30 at the Pike Pub, 1415 First Avenue, in downtown Seattle. Fish Tales & Pike Ales is designed to “school” both food-professional and consumer “a-fish-ionados” on the virtues of wild seafood, with an emphasis on the attributes and advantages of using frozen products. The event’s major donor, the Alaska Seafood Marketing Institute (ASMI), will supply a majority of the evening’s seafood including Alaskan-caught sockeye salmon, Pacific cod, and crab.
Dishes prepared by LDES members—King Crab Chowder (Dame Lisa Dupar—Lisa Dupar Catering), Pacific Cod Lettuce Wraps (Dame Thoa Nguyen—Thoa’s Restaurant & Lounge), and Spicy Wild Salmon (Dame Rose Ann Finkel—Pike Brewing Company)—will be paired with appropriate Pike Brewing Company microbrews and wines from Washington State. During the casual, walk-around event, attendees will be divided into three groups “schooled” by seafood-savvy experts.
Tickets cost $75 per person and are available through PayPal on the LDES website at http://www.lesdamesseattle.com/fishtales.htm.
A $500 raffle basket containing a Kindle Fire, a gift card for e-books, and other Dames-donated items is another exciting part of Fish Tales & Pike Ales fundraiser.
