Hosted by the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History, Savoring Sustainable Seafood takes place June 11th and 12th in Washington DC. This high profile event should not to be missed. Unfortunately, however, SOP staff will be out of town. We will rely on any readers who attend to fill us in on the details.

The evening receptions on June 11th are expected to be star-studded events filled with lively discussion and superior eats. Former Top Chef cheftestants Carla Hall, Bryan Voltaggio, and Mike Isabella will be on hand. Also in attendance will be a smattering of the best local chefs, including Michel Richard, Nora Pouillon, and Roberto Donna. And, what sustainable seafood event would be complete without two of the movement’s strongest advocates…Rick Moonen and Barton Seaver.

The Saturday session starts in the morning with a breakfast buffet including smoked sustainable seafood. A series of panel discussions will be kicked off by the Obama administration’s top fisheries manager Eric Schwaab. Panel topics include the successes and challenges in achieving sustainable seafood, the future of aquaculture, and sustainability at home and in restaurants.
