Meet Where the Sky Touches the Sea - The Sunset Room By Katrina Geenevasen Photos Evan Ceretti
Anyone who’s ever watched in awe as the skies in PEI transformed from vibrant blues to fiery oranges and yellows over the roar of the ocean knows there’s just nothing quite like it. “There truly is nothing like a Prince Edward Island sunset,” says Cameron Davis, owner of The Sunset Room, a restaurant and special event venue in Summerside. Serving up unique and delicious island-inspired meals while providing a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere, the location and layout (a banquet hall, covered deck, and seaside courtyard) provide for a one-of-a-kind venue that
overlooks the beautiful Summerside harbour. “We like to say that Mother Nature provides the backdrop, and we do the rest,” says Davis. Many guests often like to start off their meals with the potatoes stuffed with lobster and scallops. “When you think of PEI food, I don’t think you can get any more ‘Islander’ than that,” says Davis, overlooking his restaurant’s incredible ocean views. From there, guests enjoy entrees such as the lobster-stuffed sole, sweet barbecue ribs, and scallop and lobster linguini.
Fresh ingredients aside, there’s much more that goes into these dishes, says Davis. “I genuinely think the time and care that goes into each dish is what makes them so special.” The Sipyard (a play on words based on the prior name of the building – The Shipyard) is located next to the main dining area. It’s the ultimate place to enjoy the best things in life because it offers just that, says Davis, the best things in life. “I’m talking about cold drinks, tasty food, great music and incredible views. It’s where you want to be after a long day of work. Out in the sun, looking out at the water and enjoying a cold beer.”
