Description
In honor of the start of the recreational Dungeness Crab season on the Northern California coast, Nick’s Cove Restaurant, Cottages & Oyster Bar in Marshall is hosting its inaugural Crab Catch on Sunday, November 11, the Crab Catch features various crab-centric activities available for crustacean-lovers of all ages including a Tomales Bay crab-catching competition and award ceremony hosted by Liam Mayclem of KCBS’ FoodieChap and CBS 5’s Eye on the Bay; a cooking demo with Executive Chef Austin Perkins; a crab-infused cocktail “Crabby Hour;” and a three-course Dungeness crab tasting menu with a portion of the day’s proceeds benefiting the Petaluma Educational Foundation.The crab-catching competition will begin at 10 a.m. and those that return to Nick’s Cove by 2 p.m. will be eligible to win impressive prizes in categories like “Heaviest Haul” (most crabs caught) and “Big Kahuna” (biggest crab). For those who love crab but would rather spend the day eating it, there will be a cooking demonstration by Executive Chef Austin Perkins who will be preparing his signature Dungeness Crab Mac & Cheese starting at 11 a.m. with lunch to follow. The demonstration and lunch is $45 per person, including tax, gratuity and a commemorative apron. The entry fee for participating in the Inaugural Crab Catch is $40 before November 1 and $50 thereafter (participants must have valid crab-catching license, as well as their own boat, bait and traps). To register for both the cooking demonstration and/or the crab catching competition please visit http://crabcatch.eventbrite.com.
After the Crab Catch, Nick’s Cove will offer a pre-dinner “Crabby Hour” from 4:30 – 5:30 p.m. featuring crab-infused Bloody Mary cocktails and Cucumber Cosmos with crab-crème fraiche foam in the Nick’s Cove Bar. Beginning at 5:30 p.m. Chef Austin Perkins will offer a four-course prix fixe Dungeness Crab Menu in the Nick’s Cove Dining Room, with a portion of the proceeds benefiting the Petaluma Educational Foundation. The menu includes Crab Louie Salad, Dungeness Crab Cakes, Dungeness Crab Risotto and dessert. $55 per person, exclusive of tax and gratuity.
