Another great family feast at HG/BSK’s Prince Edward Island oceanfront home. The emphasis was on seafood and produce–all locally caught, harvested, etc. BSK’s sister and brother-in-law, Noel and Yossi M., their son, Erik, and his wife, Lisa. were all at the dinner table. (Erik and Lisa, stars and impresarios of their equine extravaganza, “Gladius,” are based in Las Vegas but are visiting at Noel and Yossi’s Ocean Mist Farm). Starter was oysters (PEI Tuxedos and South Lakes). Expert HG shucked dozens of these briny beauties in record time. Main dish was BSK’s lusty cod (from the waters off PEI) and mussels (harvested in St. Peters Bay) chowder. Other ingredients in the “chowda” were garlic and potatoes (both from Ocean Mist Farm) plus local bacon, onions and clam broth. Another savory BSK culinary masterwork. No leftovers; not with powerhouse Erik armed with silverware. Erik’s appetite is as massive as his muscles. Dessert followed the local theme. PEI ADL French Vanilla ice cream topped with fruit jam made by Nabuur’s, a local garden and produce shop. Another meal proving that PEI is a glorious food island.
