Bogside Brewing, Montague, Prince Edward Island

It is so good to see Chef Dave Mottershall back cooking on Prince Edward Island.  No matter where he’s been, his Instagram handle is @chef_rouge…likely because of his red hair, but also because of the red-soiled island that he calls home. Dave has chef’d everywhere from Banff Springs Hotel to Langara Fishing Lodge; from his own experimental pop up restaurant Loka in Toronto to the Claddagh Oyster House in Charlottetown.  He is a very talented, super-creative chef.

Bogside Brewing cracked opened its doors (the beer won’t be ready for a while) to the public in May of this year and with Motthershall at the helm, the food is going to be outstanding, a wonderful interlude in the Points East Drive that  winds its way past 50 beaches, some of the finest in Canada.  Till theirs are on tap, they have a great selection of PEI’s beers.

Meanwhile, feast on dill-pickled Island Blue mussels or a platter of fresh oysters. Try the halibut with lobster sauce and watercress.  I’m not sure when I’ve seen a more hyper local salad…smoked gouda, black garlic, island greens and rye berries.  At this time of  year there’ll be rhubarb-something…in this case a lovely cake with whipped sheeps’ yogurt.  It’s really little wonder that PEI has taken the byline as “Canada’s Food Island”.
