Ray’s at FareStart Guest Chef Night Jan. 24!

Ray’s at FareStart Guest Chef Night Jan. 24!

On Thursday, January 24 our Executive Chef Paul Duncan will cook alongside the hardworking students at FareStart to prepare a three-course meal while he teaches cooking skills, presentation techniques, and service standards in the kitchen.

Last year Chef Paul and FareStart served our famous Mediterranean Mussels and he had the opportunity to teach the students how to prep and cook with mussels, a new experience for most! Excited by being able to teach the new skills Paul will be preparing prawns and showing the students how to properly prepare and cook them.

Reserve your seats today to enjoy this delicious dinner and the satisfaction of helping our local community!

Fresh Fish Series: Halibut!

BH-Pan Seared Washington Halibut 2

Kicking off our Fresh Fish Series on the Ray’s blog is….. Halibut! Halibut season has taken off this year with no short supply.  Fleets are fishing from Kodiak Island, to South East Alaska, and through British Columbia.  We’ve been filleting beautiful fish this season and halibut is forecasted to be plentiful now through October.

We’ve also just heard from our local fishermen that we will receive Washington Coast halibut as soon as this Monday, April 17!

Because of the grand numbers of halibut in the Pacific Ocean, it elevates its sustainability level, which protects other species living in our ocean, like Rockfish. This is another delicious option that is set to be abundant this year and available at Ray’s all summer.

Join us this weekend for perfectly prepared halibut in the Boathouse or Cafe!

See you soon,

Steve Hauch, Executive Sous Chef
