Local Table Cooking & Dining Experience
Dive into Alaska's vibrant culinary heritage with a hands-on cooking adventure that's as flavorful as it is unforgettable. This two-hour culinary adventure invites you to savor the taste of wild-caught Alaskan salmon while learning the secrets behind preparing three simple yet mouthwatering dishes. Led by a third-generation fisherman and registered dietitian, this experience blends storytelling and interactive cooking to create a one-of-a-kind foodie experience. As you dive into the world of seafood, you'll gain insights into the local fishing industry, the health benefits of salmon, and how to select the best seafood no matter where you are. With hands-on stations, you'll chop, season and cook your way to a final meal, all while uncovering family recipes passed down through generations. Gather around the table and enjoy your creations with breathtaking views of the Tongass Narrows.
What you will see along the way:
The charm of Ketchikan unfolds around you on your short stroll. Wooden boardwalks line the waterfront, bustling with shops, galleries and restaurants offering the day's fresh catch. Colorful buildings, some perched on stilts above the water, reflect the town's rich maritime history. Along the way, you may spot fishing boats in the harbor, bald eagles soaring overhead, or a totem pole standing as a testament to the area's native heritage.
Lunch:
Savor a beautifully curated meal featuring the best of wild-caught Alaskan salmon. Begin with a rich and creamy smoked salmon dip, paired with crisp vegetables and crackers. Enjoy perfectly seasoned salmon cakes, complemented by two flavorful sauces. Then, indulge in a baked salmon fillet, served alongside fluffy rice and a fresh, vibrant salad. To accompany your meal, choose from a selection of refreshing soft drinks, coffee, tea or water. It's a true taste of Alaska, crafted with care and served with stunning views.
