MARINE CUISINE MENU 2020

Marine Cuisine™ delivers much healthier, more responsible and more sustainable options than traditional seafood.

Marine Cuisine™ is a culinary ethic and style which informs a collection of dishes which features smaller and lesser known species in order to provide better choices for chefs and consumers. Marine Cuisine™ “Makes Ugly Fishes, Delicious”.

Our style and ethic is simple: Find and use the finest quality product possible given location, budget and timing. Then, don’t get too fancy with it. Follow a progression. Tell a story. DELIVERY DISCOVERY!!!

JOURNEY & DISCOVERY - When we began this menu concept we had a vision to use the meal to be a journey through the ecosystems that create and support “seafood”. Its not a biology class, but there is much to discover in the process. We start in the fresh water “river” with the caviar from the sturgeon. From there we move into the marsh and inter-tidal flats where oysters, clams and mussels are abundant. After that we enjoy the fruits of the shallow bays and near shore waters with crab, scallops, small fin fish and and more. Finally, we head for the deep, pelagic zones of the ocean for larger fin fish, lobster, squid and octopus. The journey is about much more than the food. It is about how we enjoy protect, preserve and restore these habitats which we we have relied on for millennia. The history, culture, cuisine, economy and ecology of any nation with a coastline has been and will continue to be greatly affected by these habitats. MARINE CUISINE & DelicaSEAS puts it all on a plate and into perspective for you.
