Discover Sablefish: The "Wagyu" fish of the Ocean MasterClass

Golden Eagle Sablefish raised on Vancouver Island is a decadent, sushi-grade fish that gives big pay-offs in luxe flavour and wow factor for little effort and time in the kitchen. Join Chef Welbert Choi as he expertly butchers a fresh, whole sablefish from nose to tail and demonstrates how to prepare this unique local fish like a pro. Cook together with Chef and learn to create restaurant-level dishes that you can add to your repertoire of hit meals at home.

Golden Eagle Sablefish is the only farm in the world raising sablefish. As sablefish is a local fish to BC, it thrives in our ocean backyard thanks to its naturally evolved protection and adaptations to this environment. We raise our fish in partnership with the Kyuquot-Checleseht First Nations and everyday, we work together on raising healthy, happy fish. We are the only marine net pen farm in North America to be rated as a Green Best Choice by Seafood Watch, and we are recommended as a sustainable seafood by the Ocean Wise Seafood Program.

Note: please arrive 15 minutes before your MasterClass.
