Ranging from fish to crustaceans to molluscs, chef apprised us of some must dos and tricks to follow while grilling seafood. These included:
 - Grilling lobsters and prawns with the shell to retain their shape and prevent them from shrinking due to loss of water content while grilling
 - Boiling an octopus for almost half the number of hours as its weight and then grilling to achieve the desired buttery texture
 - Understanding the different kinds of fish, their cuts like fillet of sea bass, red snapper, salmon steak etc., and their textures to arrive at their apt cooking temperatures.

This workshop was an ode to the Frutti Di Mare E Pesce or seafood Festival taking place at this restaurant until 21st Oct, 2016 where Chef and his team will be dishing out scrumptious, fresh, customized seafood preparations from the festival menu for guests.

Do let me know of your experience if you have been to this special food festival.
