A Taste of the Florida Keys: Chef’s Table Experience

We’re taking you on a journey to the Florida Keys—not the sanitized, picture-perfect version you see on postcards, but the real Keys. The one with weathered fishermen, conch fritters that make you weak in the knees, and a salty breeze that makes everything taste just a little bit better.

Chef Stalnaker has put together a seven-course menu that’s not just inspired by the Keys—it’s drenched in them. We’re talking fresh-off-the-boat seafood, citrus that could’ve been plucked from Hemingway’s backyard, and flavors that don’t just whisper—they shout. This isn’t a meal for the faint of heart. It’s for those who know that good food should make you feel something.

The Keys are a place where time slows down, where meals are meant to be savored, not rushed. That’s what this event is all about. We’re bringing the sun-soaked spirit of the islands to West Virginia, with dishes that are as raw and real as the people who live there. Each bite is a taste of the Keys—honest, bold, and just a little bit wild.
