This week we went in the kitchen at Duval's New World Cafe with operating partner Josh Halbrucker and chef Nils Tarantik as he prepares their Spice Rubbed Goldentile, a gulf-caught fish dish with shoestring vegetables, sweet soy glaze and crispy cellophane noodles.

Duval's New World Cafe outgrew its location in south Sarasota before recently moving onto Main Street in downtown Sarasota. The restaurant's menu includes local fresh fish selections, Scallops Rockefeller, Scottish Salmon, Lobster Tails, Crab Stuffed Shrimp, Prince Edward Island Mussels and other mouthwatering dishes.

Duval's new World Cafe is open seven days a week, with a Sunday brunch from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
