San Diego, CA — We are excited to introduce San Diego Seafood: Then and Now, a unique collection of recipes and stories that highlights the rich cultural, culinary, and maritime heritage of our region. This book weaves together the past and present, demystifying seafood for both institutional and at-home chefs while showcasing the beauty of sustainable, locally sourced seafood.

Complimentary copies will be donated to institutional kitchens across San Diego, including hospitals and schools, and all proceeds will benefit local charities.

This project is driven by California Sea Grant and other key partners, with contributions from local historians, fishing families, artists, scientists, and chefs. Featured culinary experts include renowned chefs such as Davin Waite, Travis Swikard, Natalie Sawyer, and Drew Deckman. Together, we have created a collaborative work that embodies the heart of San Diego’s community and heritage.

Now, we are calling on the San Diego community for your support in bringing San Diego Seafood: Then and Now to life with a 30 day crowdsourcing campaign, beginning October 1st.

Help us celebrate our city’s multicultural roots and seafood traditions by ensuring this one-of-a-kind book reaches kitchens across San Diego by early 2024.
