Snapper collars grabbed the win
at the @sail250neworleans seafood cookoff.
New Orleans chefs were paired up with sailors serving on their nations’ tall ships.
I was part of a panel of judges (military and civilian) with the tall task of picking the best.
Chef Wiley of @delacroixrestaurant and culinary specialist Cecilia of @uscg vessel @barqueeagle worked together on those snapper colors with crawfish butter for the win.
Second place: Chef @chefdeelavigne worked with another Coast Guard specialist on “gumbo salad” and it was tasty surprise
Third place: chef Aom of @goodcatchnola worked with a chef from Peru’s vessel for a ceviche / Thai soup pairing
Fantastic day in New Orleans all around
