Buddha statues, gleaming glass, island artworks and Canadian crafts aplenty in the gallery; a lovely garden filled with exotic plants and blooms; and a great cafe serving sophisticated dishes like Thai mussels, pan-seared scallops and a PEI ploughman's board. Chef Norman Day scooped up the coveted 'Taste Our Island' award in 2018.
