Maine Restaurants Join Sustainable Seafood Partnership

The owners of Five Fifty-Five in Portland have worked with the Gulf of Maine Research Institute for a couple of years now.

Steve and Michelle Corry participated in GMRI's Out of the Blue program last year, making it a point to place under-used fish from the Gulf of Maine on their menu to give overfished species a break.

And they always have a drink on their menu dedicated to the organization; every month, a portion of the sales of that drink are donated to GMRI.

Now, Five Fifty-Five has gone a step further by joining a new program GMRI has developed called Sustainable Seafood Culinary Partners.
