Sustainable seafood-centric restaurant Local Ocean Seafoods hosted 80 guests (yes, we packed the house!) for a seaweed-focused 5-course pre-fixe dinner with Local Ocean Executive Chef Enrique Sanchez-Rodriguez and guest chef Luis Cabanas, the former Executive Chef at Paley's Place.

Together with around 100 guests, we celebrated Oregon's delicious seafare and the talented, hard-working people that harvest it sustainably while exploring the Central Coast Food Web Yaquina Lab facility.
