Even before Grand Boulevard at Sandestin?s town center opens, it is gaining a reputation as a dining destination in Northwest Florida. There are currently five newto-the-area restaurants planned for Grand Boulevard including Mitchell?s Fish Market Seafood Restaurant & Bar which anticipates a June 2007 opening.
With the motto ?Fish any fresher would still be in the ocean,? the Cameron Mitchell Restaurant is described as ?absolutely, positively obsessed with freshness.? The ever-changing menu will include more than 80 seafood choices, including local fish from the Gulf and ?every coastline within culinary reach.?
Interiors at Mitchell?s Fish Market are classically tailored and feature deep-red mahogany woods, leather upholstery and handcrafted details. Warm brick exteriors with black awnings encourage guests to read the hand-painted signs displaying signature menu items and fresh seafood messages.
Restaurant group founder Cameron Mitchell?s enthusiastic approach, culinary training and experience are at the core of the success of his restaurant companies. His Columbus, Ohio-based company has nine concept restaurants in eight states for a total of 29 dining establishments.
A 1986 graduate of the Culinary Institute of America, Mitchell ?fell in love? with his culinary career at the age of 18 years old. ?I love what I do ? it?s not really work to me,? Mitchell said.
He described dining as ?a celebration of life.? He wanted his guests to be so excited about their dining experience that they talk about it to their friends and want to repeat the experience again and again. ?It?s the best advertising you can get,? he said.
The planned Panama City-Bay County International Airport expansion was one of the indicators that the local market has an excellent opportunity for long-term growth. Mitchell chose Grand Boulevard as the location for his newest restaurant because from a tenant standpoint ?it is a home run.?
?Howard Group, the developer, is doing everything right. There is nothing like Grand Boulevard anywhere in this area and nothing like it in the immediate future,? Mitchell said. ?When Grand Boulevard is completed it will have everything and be the best place to shop and dine.?
