About this Event
The Institute of Culinary Education is launching Table Stakes, a new panel series of conversations on what’s at stake in the future of food and the people who make it. The inaugural conversation, Table Stakes: The Future of Sustainable Seafood on September 22 will bring together leaders spanning food advocacy, marine restoration, restaurants and culinary education to examine what our changing ocean means for the future of seafood in New York — and what chefs and diners can do about it.

- Andrew Zimmern — Emmy-winning TV host, James Beard Award-winning chef, author and food advocate
- Jennifer Bushman — Co-Founder & Executive Director, Fed by Blue

- Nadia Casaperalta — Director of Culinary Education, Institute of Culinary Education
- Jeremy Benson — General Manager, Crave Fishbar
The conversation will explore:

- And more
