FILLET-A-FISH CLASS ON JULY 18th

Winchester, MA...> Chris Parsons, chef/owner, Catch Restaurant in Winchester, is pleased to announce that Catch has earned top honors, BEST RESTAURANT/OVERALL IN NEW ENGLAND from OpenTable.com. Plus Catch earned BEST RESTAURANT / SEAFOOD. "This is huge" explains Parsons. "It is voted on by actual diners, so this means the world to us. It's fantastic to know that we are providing the best overall restaurant experience in New England. Of course we set out to do our best every day so it's great to be recognized." Rounding out the Top Five in New England are Fore Street, White Barn Inn, Gracies and 28 Atlantic.

Parsons changes his menu every night to reflect the freshest catch of the day. "Right now the flounder is just so fresh - it melts in your mouth. We are serving it two different ways because it's so popular. I am finding guests are asking us more questions for how to cook it up yourself at home as well. With the CSF (community supported fisheries) and Farmers Market season upon us, people have fresh whole fish coming into their kitchen, but don't know what to do with it!"

Fear not - Parsons is taking the fear out of the fillet. Catch is featuring a "FILLET-A-FISH" class on Saturday, July 18th at 11:30am. Parsons will teach the class how to fillet three locally caught fish: flounder, bass, bluefish. Plus he will share tips on knife skills and choosing the best knife for the job. Tastings and wine will be served. "The wine will come after the knife skills component" he says with a smile. The class is $40. per person and Reservations are Required by calling 781.729.1040.
