Slow Food NYC
SLOW U: SUSTAINABLE SEAFOOD
Tuesday, October 16, 2012, 6pm - 8pm
Haven's Kitchen, 109 West 17th Street, New York, NY
Join Sean Dimin, of Sea to Table, to learn about sustainable New England fisheries and the family fishermen that harvest our waters. While Sean presents, Chef Julia Sullivan of Haven's Kitchen, formerly of Franny's and Per Se, will serve the fish both raw and cooked, inspired by traditional New England recipes, while attendees enjoy local New York wines selected for the occasion.
Sea to Table partners with local fishermen from sustainable wild fisheries, creating a direct connection between fisherman and chef. Sea to Table delivers today's catch overnight to restaurants enabling diners to know the 'who, how and where' of the impossibly fresh fish they enjoy. Haven's Kitchen is a recreational cooking school, specialty food shop, and event space. Located in a charming carriage house two blocks from Manhattan's Union Square, Haven's Kitchen is dedicated to the preparation and enjoyment of delicious, sustainable, seasonal food.
Proceeds from this event support the programs of not-for-profit Slow Food NYC, including the Urban Harvest program of good food education for NYC kids in 11 schools in the South Bronx and East Harlem, on the Lower East Side, and in Brooklyn, and at a summer urban farm in the East New York neighborhood of Brooklyn. More than 1,000 Urban Harvest kids learn the importance of good, clean, and fair food to their health, the health of their families and communities, and the health of the planet.
