Prince Edward Island Restaurants - Serving Great Prince Edward Island Food!

Prince Edward Island Food

Dining in PEI, Island Foods, Prince Edward Island Restaurants

On an island where the primary industries are farming and fishing, fresh is the operative word when it comes to food experiences. Prince Edward Island is famous for its oysters, mussels and even potatoes, and now visitors can enjoy "field to table"

On the Island the "100-mile diet" becomes the 10-mile diet as the lobster on your plate may have been harvested on the fishing boat at the dock outside the window and the salad is made up of herbs and greens from the garden in the yard.

The PEI International Shellfish Festival is a lively three days filled with music, mussels and oysters plus the intensely exciting shucking competitions. In late September more than 100 events pack the Fall Flavours festival agenda. Culinary keeners go from smoking and pickling workshops, to oyster tonging and potato picking, to spectacular fine dining with top chefs cooking up nine-course extravaganzas.
