Seattle Fish Company is entering the final stage of our search for a winning dish to be prominently displayed on the side of one of our new trucks. The Seattle Fish Truck Graphic Contest generated 140 entries from chefs, restaurants and retailers in the Rocky Mountain Region. These tantalizing entries were featured on the Seattle Fish Company Facebook Page and spurred hundreds of “Likes” throughout the photo album, helping us identify 22 finalists. The next step is to finalize the winner(s) via a panel of judges that include Lori Midson, Cafe Society Editor of Westword; Christopher Cina, Executive Chef of Ghost Plate & Tap; Mark DeNittis of Il Mondo Vecchio; and Jon Emanuel, Executive Chef of Project Angel Heart. The winning image will be professionally photographed and featured on one of Seattle Fish Company’s brand new distribution trucks.

Judging is set to take place the week of December 12. Make sure to visit the Seattle Fish Company Facebook Page to view the top 21 entries and congratulations to our finalists:
