Time to vote for all of your favorites for City Paper’s Best of Charleston! I’ve already cast my ballot for Fish in several categories including: Best Restaurant (admittedly, I’m a bit biased), Best Downtown Restaurant, Best Chef (love to Nico), Best Wait Staff (very knowledgeable, and friendly too!), Best Wine Selection (Jodie and Evan work hard on this one) and Best Seafood (always local and fresh). It takes a few minutes, but it is a fun exercise to list all of the people, places and events that make Charleston such a great place to live. So go on, get to it. I’ll wait.

In other news, Fish is officially serving the new Winter Menu! Hurrah! Additions to note include an open face croque madame (one of my all time favorite sandwiches) with duck confit. Doesn’t that sound divine? Also new to the menu, the roasted golden trout with potato, zucchini and butternut squash quiche is supposed to be the most (to say the least). I have yet to try these new dishes, so I’ve planned to go to Fish on Tuesday and order the croque madame as an appetizer and the trout for my entrée and then use my girlish charm to convince my date to order the Mercy of the Chef menu so I can try that, too. So many intriguing new dishes, so little room in my stomach. Mental note: must skip lunch on Tuesday in preparation. I’ll let you know how it goes, or come try for yourself this weekend. Call 843.722.3474 for reservations.

What’s a Nosh Mob you aks? It’s a social gathering where you can meet like-minded foodies at locally-owned restaurants and businesses to take advantage of special discounts, win $100 restaurant gift certificates, and learn tips from chefs and food producers. Nosh Mob events take place on a regular basis and have a fun, educational element to them.

Fish’s Nosh Mob will begin at 5:30 pm tomorrow  (Tuesday, December 1st). Executive Chef Nico Romo will start the event by taking Nosh Mob members on a tour of Fish kitchen. He’ll be highlighting the fresh seafood selections that come into the restaurant daily, our special kitchen elements like a walk-in freezer made specifically for cleaning fish and introducing the Mob to our super talented cooks and sous chefs. Following the tour, the Mob will head over to the catering kitchen for a demonstration by Nico on the history of dim sum and his French-Asian fusion techniques. Plan to enjoy samples of his one-of-a-kind dim sum and Mixologist Evan Powell’s specialty fusion cocktail.

Immediately following the demonstration Fish will be offering a three course Mercy of the Chef menu for $25 for those Nosh Mobbers that would like to stay and experience the cuisine they just learned about.

The event is FREE to Nosh Mob members (sign up here) and door prizes will include a $100 gift certificate to Fish among other goodies. Space is limited so make sure to sign up as soon as possible.

Happy Noshing!
