At Blue on Water, we don’t settle. We have a firm belief in serving great food, and we know that comes from great ingredients.

We believe that quality can make the difference between just another meal and a memorable experience. That’s why we work with local farmers and other suppliers to ensure that everything that goes into making our food is the best that it can be. In fact, in an effort to ensure truly fresh food, as well as plenty of options, we use our own home grown assortment of over 11,000 herbs, vegetables, and other ingredients wherever possible.

The Food Movement

Here at Blue on Water we believe in the food movement, and it influences everything we do.

What is the food movement? It is a commitment to quality, to bring to our customers the freshest and highest quality produce, meats, and seafood possible. Due to our island location in the North Atlantic, our access to quality, organic products has always been limited, to say the least. So, in the spirit of the food movement, it means growing our own herbs and produce in organic soil, pesticide free, in our own backyard. It also means taking our family out for an afternoon of harvesting wild chanterelles, edible thistles, flowers, and berries.

One of our goals is to promote our unique heritage and highlight many of the foods we grew up on, such as cod tongues with scrunchions, molasses, kippers, wild produce, and berries. With this in mind, we buy local fish at every opportunity, never frozen.

The food movement is a Canada-wide movement veering away from the cloak of “fine dining” to focus rather on the imaginative combination of flavours and presentation of the highest standards of food possible.
