On February 10th, 2019, Newport Aquarium will host a Celebration of Seafood Dinner, which will be the Cincinnati region's third annual example of what can happen when a local-food network collaborates: farm teams grow and raise flavorful crops; chefs think about savory dishes made with locally grown and raised food to pair with locally-brewed beer and world-class wine; and a local magazine’s team identifies ways to tell the story. In this case, there will be a focus on sustainable fish from the sea, local aquaculture, and seafood vegetables.
