The Sea of Approval

Nova Scotia is Canada’s ocean playground known for its impeccably fresh seafood and a distinct culinary tradition. The North Atlantic’s rich waters supply the herring, cod, halibut, mackerel, oysters, mussels that regularly appear in the region’s culinary historical record, often in the context of some sort of chowder. Fish and shellfish helped sustain the early French colonists at Port-Royal, and the seafood also nourished the native Mi’kmaw people.
