Tasting Parties FAQs

  • What exactly is a “Tasting Party”?

A “Tasting Party” is a fun and easy way for you and your friends, and/or family, to be able to taste our delicious Sea Cuisine™ entrées firsthand in your own home – for FREE! We want you to be able to experience a wonderful seafood dinner together in a dinner party setting of your choosing to taste how delicious (and easy) frozen seafood dinners can be.

  • What is the $200 Tasting Party Sweepstakes prize?
  • Each month, one winner will receive a prize package consisting of:
  • Four (4) coupons, each redeemable for one (1) FREE Sea Cuisine™ frozen seafood product, up to $6.99. This will enable you to buy Sea Cuisine™ entrées for eight (8) people.
  • $75 American Express® gift card for the groceries needed to create your tasting party menu.

  • How many people can I invite to my Tasting Party?
  • The $200 Tasting Party prize package is designed to accommodate up to eight (8) people.

  • Who handles all the planning for my Tasting Party?

  • Sample dinner menus, created by Executive Chef Owen Tilley
  • A planning checklist to make your party turnkey
  • A timeline for hosting your event

We’ll leave the actual dinner party to you, since no one knows your guests better than you.

  • What if I’m not a great cook?
  • Don’t worry. Chef Owen has created a series of dinner party menus that are both delicious and easy to prepare. With these simple meal ideas, you’ll have a delicious seafood dinner on the table in no time.

  • How will the information on the guests’ comment cards be used?
  • Your feedback is very important to us. The most important thing we will do is listen and use that information to direct the development and refinement of the Sea Cuisine™ product line. However, in the comment card, your guests will be able to indicate whether or not we will be allowed to use their comments in any marketing efforts. NEVER in any circumstance would we reveal a person’s full name in the public domain. We always abide by strict High Liner Foods Privacy Policies. However, if you and your guests are as excited about Sea Cuisine™ as we are, we’d love permission to share your feelings with others!
