I'm honored, TRULY honored, to be able to attend this amazing event.
The opportunity for a private cooking demonstration featuring Sous Chef Mike Camp from La Belle Vie isn't something that passes by my table any day of the week. The dinner includes: cooking demonstration, five-course dinner and wine pairing.
The menu:
* Smoked Salmon Carpaccio with Citrus Vinaigrette and Candied Lemon
* Sauteed Skate Wing with Jerusalem Artichoke, Trout Roe and Cipollini Onion
* Roasted Duck Breast with Duck Confit, Porcini and Sweet Corn
* Grilled Ribeye with Lyonaisse Potato Cake, Baby Turnips and Carrot
* Gianduja Rice-Crispy with Hazelnut Nougatine and Avocado
Now, as some of you may have read, I am currently a pescetarian who is considering eating land animals again....so I'm wondering if this is the time and place.I've vowed that my land animal consumption will reflect my belief in the sustainable production of meat. What say you?

You should be more concered about where the skate wing comes from since most skate is a big no-no from a sustainability standpoint

Thanks for the info about skate, david foureyes. In normal circumstances, I would definitely bypass this dish. But I'm just not sure how to proceed with this event.
Because I want to adhere to sustainable fish/seafood production practices, my ability to eat meat prepared at a restaurant has been limited. That will continue to be the case as I move on with land animals.
Is it rude to ask the origins of meats served at a restaurant? I have asked on occasion, although I usually just don't bother ordering it if I do.
If I learn that the meat is not sustainably produced at this event, is it rude for me to decline the dish?
You're welcome, marie.
Definitely not rude. I ask if foods are local all the time.
Wahoo. I'm excited about this event. I think you should meat it up...then again, if you don't, there's more for us! So, win win either way:)
surely the Sous Chef Mike Camp from La Belle Vie chooses only the finest sustainable meat ingredients
and presumably the event planners can get the answer for you
this is the best I could find:

Dear Author www.reetsyburger.com !
In my opinion you are not right. I am assured. I suggest it to discuss.
I want to quote your post in my blog. It can?
