Plan to attend the Cooking with the Chefs event, Oct. 1-2, as part of the North Carolina Seafood Festival in Morehead City. North Carolina Sea Grant is a cosponsor of this event.
Chefs from the North Carolina coast will demonstrate recipes using local seafood. These chefs represent the four local seafood branding programs — Carteret Catch, Brunswick Catch, Ocracoke Fresh and Outer Banks Catch. Also, featured this year are the 42nd Street Oyster Bar of Raleigh; Watts Grocery of Durham; and Sheri Castle, a UNC Press food writer.
Other organizations will have booths in the tent, including the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s National Weather Service, FishWatch and NOAA in the Carolinas.
Overall, the N.C. Seafood Festival opens on Friday, Sept. 30, and runs through Oct. 2, with seafood, crafts, music and more.
