Open Seas, The Gannet and Edinbane Lodge are delighted to invite you to our #DivedNotDredged lunch at The Gannet, Glasgow, on Sunday 16th November, 12.30 pm, a meaningful event celebrating Scotland’s hand-dived scallops and exploring the role of sustainable seafood in protecting marine habitats and shaping Scotland’s food future.
As part of Open Seas’ #DivedNotDredged campaign, celebrating the Scottish scallop hand dive sector as a great example of low impact fishing and calling for the prioritization of more low impact fishing across Scotland’s seas – the lunch will bring together chefs, seafood enthusiasts and scallop divers to discuss how menus, food storytelling, and consumer choices can help drive more sustainable practices across Scotland’s seafood sector.
The collaborative menu, designed by Peter McKenna and Calum Montgomery will showcase the sustainable seafood vision of both city-based and coastal community chefs, highlighting the importance of promoting sustainable seafood through menus and audiences alike.
The dining event will close with a Q&A panel, hosted by Open Seas, featuring the chefs and fishermen, offering insights into the importance of the way we catch our seafood and the opportunity for everyone to improve the Scottish seafood system.This comes at a timely moment, as the Scottish Government is expected to launch a high-profile consultation on protecting our coastal seas from destructive fishing methods such as scallop dredging: an opportunity to safeguard marine ecosystems and promote more sustainable fishing practices.
