Area 31 is joining the oil spill disaster relief efforts with a “We Cook While They Clean” fundraiser. Starting today (Wednesday, June 23), $1 from every Oyster Primi dish on the lunch and dinner menu will be donated to the Gulf Relief Foundation,a nonprofit organization committed to providing relief to the fishing community of the Gulf Coast. This fundraiser will continue until fishermen are back in their boats. “We wanted to support those who have been most affected and displaced by this oil spill, especially those fishermen who we rely on everyday in our restaurants,” said Executive Chef John Critchley. “We are coming together and making an honest commitment to these fisherman.”[EaterWire]
