Event Dining
in Gulf Shores & Orange Beach
Bargain bland foods are not the centerpiece for meetings that wow delegates. Today’s attendees expect an event that’s the “whole package” – charismatic speakers, valuable information, multi-purpose destinations and, yes, unique and exceptional food.
Experiential Meetings with Culinary Experiences
Attendees have come to expect experiential meetings. Include some fun with a farm-to-fork or Gulf-to-table tour during downtime. Arrange an oyster farm tour with Whiteboots Charters to explore Shellbank Selects Oyster Farm in nearby Fort Morgan. Attendees will board a flat-bottom boat with an experienced captain to learn about the delicate eco-system in the bay, as well as how local oysters are grown and harvested. With advance notice, guests can also sample oysters aboard the boat. Follow up with a special dinner prepared at a restaurant serving Shellbank Selects, including The Royal Oyster in Gulf Shores.
A charter fishing trip is also an opportunity to experience Gulf-to-table at a cook-your-catch restaurant. After a morning of fishing, transport your group’s catch to a participating restaurant where the chef will prepare the fish for dinner that evening. It doesn’t get any fresher than right off the boat!
