Sea Delight has named celebrity Chef Robyn Almodovar as its Chef Ambassador, charging the former Chopped champion with creating innovative dishes with responsibly-sourced seafood products in time for Seafood Expo North America/Seafood Processing North America, to held in Boston this year from 19 to 21 March.
Almodovar – victorious on both the Food Network’s Chopped and Cut Throat Kitchen, and a participant on Fox’s Hell’s Kitchen with Chef Gordon Ramsay – characterizes her partnership with Sea Delight as a “perfect fit.”
“As a chef, I love using the finest responsibly sourced seafood products as well as providing me with the platform to entertain and share my culinary passions too,” Almodovar said. “I am so impressed with Sea Delight's responsible and traceable sourcing policies, global Fishery Improvement Projects (FIP's), sustainable conservation efforts and education programs."
"We are very excited to work with Chef Robyn Almodovar again,” added Adriana Sanchez, Sea Delight’s Sustainability Director. “Her contribution was invaluable to the success of Sea Delight Ocean Fund's Third Annual Taste of the Sea last October. Her passion for seafood is contagious and we cannot wait to see what she will create with our products at the Seafood Expo North America this year. We are honored to work with her again and look forward to attendees experiencing her masterful culinary skills."
Almodovar is the owner of the Palate Party food truck, and will be looking to bring the same zeal from the food truck to Boston, she said. Almodovar and Sea Delight will be located at booth #3325 in the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center.
