Soaking Up Local Culture

Newfoundland food at a Newfoundland festivalWe had a great time in Bay Roberts this past weekend, celebrating Newfoundland food and culture and our connection to the sea, at the annual Songs, Stages and Seafood Festival.  The food was amazing, and we’re not just biased because our executive chef at The Doctor’s House, Chris Chafe, did a fabulous job on his halibut on birch. The meal was especially good because of a new program that lets your track where your fish comes from. Go to www.thisfish.info  and key in N625586 to find out where Chris’ fish was caught, who caught it and more. This new traceability program was created by the Fishery Union  to help tourists become familiar with our culture and our people – very cool!

Thanks to the organizers of this great event, for promoting Newfoundland culture, and the Baccalieu Trail (our favourite!) in such a fun and novel way. Executive chef at our Newfoundland resort inn and spaGourmet Newfoundland food prepared by the chef of our Newfoundland inn and resort
