As Ark Restaurants Adds Yet Another Prolific Establishment to its Portfolio

Blue Moon Fish Co. is the perfect addition to their stellar portfolio," said Christian Prakas. "While the owners are new, locals and tourists can still expect their favorite menu items paired with dreamy sunsets and intercoastal views, and the same five-star service they know and love."

He's received countless honors for his work, which earned a feature in Bon Appétit Magazine. Additionally, he received a personal invitation to prepare dinner for the Grand Cayman chapter of Confrérie de la Chaìne des Rôtisseurs, a global gastronomic organization.
