Destin was recently represented in a big way at the World Food Championships held in Kissimmee.
Jim Shirah, the executive chef for Dewey Destin’s Seafood Restaurant was invited to the international food event by state program, Fresh from Florida and local company Ariel Seafoods Inc. His job as a sponsor to the event, was to present the proper way to filet and prepare American red snapper.
“We were there showcasing Gulf red snapper under the new management and to inform everybody that it is available year-round,“ Shirah said. “We talked about red snapper and Fish Trax, which is something they can do to research their fish. I did presentations on cleaning and preparing red snapper for purveyors to sample.“
