Project Status

Our project is expanding! There has definitely been an increased amount of awareness spreading across the city about the consumption of lionfish. With organizations like Reef Check Dominicana having projects relevant to controlling their populations, there are more events that are featuring lionfish as their main dish. People are starting to realize that not only is it an environmentally conscious meal, but it can also be quite delicious! El Vesuvio, a local restaurant here in Santo Domingo, is even having a dinner on December 6th based around the lionfish. Our next goal is to bring it into our own school cafeteria! We will keep you updated as we continue to develop ideas in order to keep our project moving.
