What to KnowJoint Seafood Block PartySunday, Aug. 2 5 to 9 p.m.600 E. 1st Street, Downtown Los AngelesFree entry<\/p>\n
If you had to add up the times you’ve sized up a salmon, you might come up with a pretty impressive number.<\/p>\n
Of course, we’re talking about when a fish fan peruses a menu and determines if they’re ordering a salmon salad or salmon burger or teriyaki salmon or another salmon-centric dish. <\/p>\n
Considering the fish, and what you’ve got a hankering for, is something you’ve likely done in more than one or two restaurants.<\/p>\n
But a different sort of consideration will take palate-tempting place on the afternoon and evening of Sunday, Aug. 2.<\/a> That’s when Joint Seafood<\/a> will host a block party, and the centerpiece of the event is an \u014cra King salmon.<\/p>\n Make an attempt to guess the weight and you might depart with the delicacy. Before you go, if you’re the winner, be sure to make a little time for the staff to prep the fish for you: They’ll filet it.<\/p>\n Even if your salmon sizing-up skills aren’t quite honed, there will be other delicious diversions to enjoy. Heng Heng Chicken Rice will be there, and Moom Maam Gelato, and a host of food-favorite purveyors representing some of the best of Southern California’s cuisine scene.<\/p>\n Live music will add to the atmosphere of the outdoor event, and drinks, too.<\/p>\n Don’t be too blue if you don’t leave with the salmon, however. Joint Seafood’s shop has several tempting offerings available for purchase, including Dry-Aged \u014cra King, Smokey Salmon, and the Butcher’s Box, which features both types of salmon as well as branzino, black cod, and barramundi.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
