Meals at the Resort are an experience to be remembered.  Many of the set meals are derived from local recipes although you can expect to see international fusion dishes from Asia, Europe and Latin America. Many of the dishes feature fresh local delicacies such as prawns, oysters, octopus, clams, salmon, cod, snapper, crab, shark, berries, mushrooms and fruits. In fact if you purchase a local fishing license, you may find yourself as an active participant in the process of harvesting what goes into the pot for dinner! Meals at Sevilla Island Resort bring a whole new meaning to the term "fresh ingredients".

Breakfasts usually feature fresh baking such as muffins, cinnamon buns, scones and breads which provides the opportunity to sample many of the locally produced jams and jellies such as salal berry, blackberry, pear, saskatoon berry, peach etc. We believe a hearty breakfast is an important start to the day so bacon, sausage, omelets, french toast, pancakes, and variety of quiches are all typical breakfast fare. Fresh ground coffee, juices and a selection of teas will ensure that you are ready to engage the day’s activities. The dining room looks over Lund Harbor and up Georgia Strait so every meal is a sightseeing opportunity. On mornings with low tides it is common to see great blue herons feeding in the tidal pools in front of the Resort. There are singing trees both on the island and across the bay so it is not unusual to hear bald eagles singing in the morning. You may also see a seal munching on a salmon while gulls swoop down for scraps, a kingfisher diving for his breakfast or any number of migratory ducks, geese and cormorants.

Lunches depend on the activity of the day. One thing we promise is that you will be pleasantly surprised. Just because you have kayaked to an island in the middle of Desolation Sound doesn't mean that you shouldn't expect our guides to serve up a meal such as poached chicken breasts with roasted walnuts and a mandarin Thai salad. If you are out on your own for the day we will provide a range of boxed lunches with sweet and savory snacks to include in your daypacks.

Dinners at the Resort are meant to be a highlight of the day which given what you will be doing each day provides a significant culinary challenge tou your chef. What will it take to compete with paddling around remote islands, hiking to panoramic lookouts, wandering along isolated beaches or cruising through Desolation Sound Marine Park? Perhaps a Grand Marnier Prawn Bisque followed by Sevilla Island Seafood Boats (roasted squash stuffed with salmon, scallops, crabs and prawns)? Maybe BBQ'd Steak and Prawns with roasted mushrooms and peppers? Or perhaps Salmon Wellington with a mushroom/sherry sauce accompanied by a sweet potato soufflé and candied carrots? You can be the judge on if the meal makes it to the days highlights list.

No dinner would be complete without dessert and after dinner drinks. Served either in the dining room, or on one of the decks enjoying the sunset, this is an excellent way to end the day. Fresh fruit pies, flans, cheesecakes or chocolate fondue are but a few of the treats you can expect to cap off the day. 

Needless to say, though you will have the opportunity to burn a few calories off each day don't plan on loosing any weight during your visit. Please make sure you let us know about of any food allergies/preferences when you make your reservation to ensure that we can accommodate your special needs.
