World Oceans Day Dinner

Lionfish San Diego’s James Beard Smart Catch Leader JoJo Ruiz is teaming up with WILDCOAST — an international non-profit started right here in San Diego whose mission is to conserve coastal and marine ecosystems — to bring together the worlds of sustainability and seafood for a culinary experience rooted in conservation in honor of World Oceans Day.

With a four-course prix-fixe menu sourced from local purveyors, guests will have the chance to indulge in dishes that speak to the future of sustainable seafood. Think: "no-kill" caviar, line-caught tuna, Baja oysters and Santa Barbara black cod.

Founder of PureFish, Shahin Mobine, will be joining the feast to discuss the importance of sourcing sustainable seafood, in conjunction with WILDCOAST co-founder and Executive Director, Serge Dedina, Ph.D., who will be speaking about WILDCOAST's conservation efforts.

20% of ticket sales will be donated directly to WILDCOAST's ocean conservation programs.
