Chef’s Table Cooking Demo: A Southern Coastal Classic

Blackened Red Drum Fish
Sustainably sourced from small fisheries, this firm yet tender fish is expertly seasoned with a bold Cajun spice blend and seared to perfection. The result: a crisp, flavorful crust encasing a flaky, succulent interior that captures the essence of Southern Gulf cooking.

Stone Ground Grits
Creamy, rich, and deeply rooted in Southern tradition, these slow-cooked grits offer a comforting, buttery base with a hint of rustic texture—an ideal companion to bold seafood flavors.

Crab Étouffée
A soul-warming Cajun stew, loaded with sweet, delicate crab simmered in a deeply flavorful roux-based sauce. Brimming with spices, aromatics, and authentic Louisiana heritage, this étouffée adds depth and complexity to every bite.

Come hungry — you’ll cook, eat, and leave inspired.

Demonstration – Chef’s Table Event: Sit back, take notes and learn new skills while your Chef-Instructor walks you through each course giving you lots of tips and tricks along the way.
