We 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.
