Jack Stein’s Seafood Odyssey Series
Jack Stein’s Seafood Odyssey events are a celebration of his lifelong love of fresh seafood from around our coast, and bringing people together for food and drink experiences. Having grown up in and around The Seafood Restaurant, great hospitality with an air of fun comes very naturally to Jack.
The series of events will see him join forces with chefs and personalities to collaborate on dinners at Rick Stein, Barnes that are inspired by a shared love of Great British seafood with flavours and influences from around the world.
“There’s nothing more exciting than coming together with some of the UK’s most acclaimed chefs to celebrate the incredible bounty of seafood we have right here on our British shores. This series is all about showcasing the best of our waters, with a mix of creativity, tradition, and a love for great cooking”.
