Tastemakers 2017: Ian Holmes of Coastal Local Seafood

By KP Green

"Ian Holmes is the go-to seafood guy for many of the city’s best restaurants, including The Sycamore, La Tavola, Skillet, the recently closed Alana’s and A&R Creative Group restaurants such as Hoof Hearted Brewery & Kitchen. As more chefs favor sustainable, farm-to-table methods, Holmes is helping them do “pier-to-plate.” While many restaurants are OK with a B product as long as it’s consistently available, Coastal Local caters to chef-driven restaurants that want A+ quality and are nimble enough to roll with whatever’s fresh that day."
