DALVAY, P.E.I. — Newlywed royal couple Will and Kate will get a warm, culinary welcome when they land in Dalvay, P.E.I. on Monday, July 4.
According to the Island’s Guardian paper, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will be treated to a meal (including an “exploding” clam bake) planned by chefs from the Culinary Institute of Canada.
According to The Guardian, chef Andrew Nicholson will spice up the clam bake by building a fire on the beach and heating river rocks for three to four hours before laying salt water-laden rockweed on them to create an “exploding” effect. “I’sve done a run-through and worked out a couple of kinks,” the chef told the paper.
Clam bake aside, the event, which will cater to 2,400 guests, will be staffed by 85 Culinary Institute chefs.For more on this story, click here.
