Victoria’s Gluten-Free Foodies Try Fishhook at Mermaid Wharf
If you like the fantastically gluten-free Fishhook (FH) creations at 805 Fort Street, you are going to love Mermaid Wharf at their second location at 407 Swift Street. Join Victoria’s Gluten-Free Foodies as we dare to dine at this fantastic venue on Friday, November 17th at 6pm.
It’s FH all over again, alright! It’s FH with a waterfront patio, char-grill, ‘thalis’ or share platters, cocktails, BC wines and six local taps, as well as a unique ‘FH-style’ weekend brunch — not to mention the ability to take reservations for dinner and brunch — even for large parties!
And Kunal has committed that all his Mermaid Wharf meals can be created for us – absolutely gluten free!* Seasonal 100% Oceanwise seafood, BC wines & libations and a locally driven, pescatarian, indo-french inspired menu. Soups, salads and curry are dairy, egg and wheat free. Prices and menu items subject to change. Learn more about Fishhook! • Facebook • Twitter • Instagram
Please RSVP via Victoria’s Gluten-Free Foodiese or to ellen@theceliacscene.com. Find Fishhook at Mermaid Wharf at the foot of Swift Street, across from the Canoe Club. Parking on Wharf Street.
- *Note that wheat-free bread offered is sourced from a bakery that also bakes with gluten.
