Design

Back by popular demand – our Toast of the Coast series is back! This year we have taken the series to a whole new level, incorporating our local neighborhood experts! Each event in the series will feature a hands-on demonstration from a pro, with fantastic food and beverage pairings. These events present a wonderful opportunity for an up-close-and-personal, interactive experience with some of the best, all within a fun atmosphere on The Fish House Deck overlooking Pensacola Bay. Each event begins at 5:30 p.m. rain or shine! Event cost is $55 per person plus tax and gratuity. Seating is limited; reservations are required and can be made by contacting Taylor Dawson – taylor@goodgrits.com, 850-287-0200

The next event in the series is as follows:

Thursday, May 15: Come Roll with Us – Sushi Rolling 101!
Come and learn the spreading, layering, tucking and rolling, and history behind it all in this this fun, hands-on social demonstration. You will learn all the skills needed to make sushi rolls and sashimi, including how to select sushi-grade fish and ingredients. Stations will be set for each participant to roll three of their own sushi rolls: California roll, Tiger roll, and tuna nigiri. The Fish House master sushi rollers, Michael Goza and Gerald Beaulieu, will conduct the class, joined by our friend, Dot Chap: former owner of Khon’s on Palafox, former head sushi chef Bonsai at the Hilton Pensacola Beach and current head chef of Betty’s on Belmont. Each of the rolls will be paired with a selection of beverages to complement them, Hiro Junmai Ginjo Sake, King Estate Sauvignon Blanc and a Kirin Ichiban Beer. Participants will take home tools of the trade including a rolling mat, paddle and spreader along with a pair of chopsticks.
