OVERVIEW

Drop by three popular venues to sample a variety of dishes made with just-caught locally sourced seafood. The menu constantly changes with the seasons and to take advantage of the ingredients that are freshest, but you can be sure that the dishes will be prepared from scratch and will be characteristic of Saint John. Because of the city’s superb location on the Bay of Fundy, an abundance of seafood is readily available. Lobster, oysters and caviar are just a few of the items that reflect the bounty of the sea. The dishes will likely be influenced by French and British cuisine as both France and England formerly colonized this area. The tastings may include scallops, fried clams, crab cakes, pan-seared cod, steamed lobster or North Atlantic salmon. The recipes may be traditional or innovative. It all depends on the venue and the chef. You might even sample dulse, a dried vitamin-rich red seaweed.
