Appetizer reception hosted by Chef Andrew Spurgin of Waters Fine Catering, Cooks Confab, and Slow Food Urban San Diego. Featuring Cooks Confab chefs, guest chefs, a video intro by marine ecologist Dr. Jeremy Jackson,* a brief lecture by Nancy Knowlton, PhD, Adjunct Professor of Marine Biology/Director of CMBC, Scripps Institution of Oceanography, and a showing of “End of the Line,” a documentary that examines the first-hand effects of the global love affair with fish as food, which premiered at last year’s Sundance Film Festival. At each tasting station, you’ll find graduate students in marine biology from Scripps Institution of Oceanography working alongside the chefs to answer questions about the seafood being served and other ocean-related topics. You’ll also find a culinary student paired with each chef to help inspire them to an important element to their budding careers—culinary responsibility.
