Bacalao
Nouvelle Newfoundland Cuisine

Celebrating the cuisine and culture of Newfoundland & Labrador, Bacalao offers a unique and innovative presentation of the foods, flavours, produce and spirits of our province.
 

Newfoundland shares its culinary history of enjoying salt cod with many other cultures. Bacalao (bak-al-OW) is the word used for salt cod
(in various spellings and pronunciations) throughout the Mediterranean. The versatility and much-beloved nature of this time-honoured
staple ingredient is the inspiration for our name and exemplifies our innovative intrepretation of Newfoundland cuisine.

 We are pleased to offer sustainably-caught cod-pot Cod!
Bacalao is participating in a project of the Fogo cooperative
and is purchasing the entire catch of one fisherman using
the cod-pot method.  Better for the environment and higher quality fish!

 

Bacalao has been featured in the Fall issue of Canadian Geographic Travel!

We were very impressed with Bacalao! The menu was very interesting and I can't wait to go back to try something else. Crab stuffed spring rolls are a nice idea and the seafood risotto was perfect, I have had it at other restaurants earlier this year and yours was the best by far. Even my 'picky' partner loved it and found more than one thing on the menu he would like. Everybody who worked there smiled at us and service was good. I am telling everybody about you!
