From May 15 to June 4, 2023, Vladivostok and other cities of the Primorsky Territory will host the first gastronomic Pollock Festival “Oh! Mega Taste” for the first time. The Fishery Shipowners Association (FSA) is a partner of the event.

With the support of the Government of the Primorsky Territory, it is organized by the Russian Fishery Company (a member of the FSA), the Gastronomic Map of Russia and the Tourist Information Center of the Primorsky Territory.

19 of the brightest gastronomic projects of Primorye will present pollock dishes in 29 restaurants of the region during the festival.

The festival aims to increase the popularity of Pollock products and a generally healthy diet, of which fish is an important part. It will serve to promote the Far Eastern regional cuisine and the development of domestic gastronomic tourism as the main trend of recent years.

Pollock is a unique natural and eco-friendly product. It is easy to cook and can acquire new flavors both as a single product and in combination with other products. During the festival, chefs will rediscover for consumers this wild fish frozen at sea to preserve its natural beneficial properties.

The organizers are sure that the Pollock Festival will be supported by restaurants all over Russia.
