With the assistance of our marine engineer and with all safety regulations taken into account, we have designed and built a luxurious dining room which is staying afloat with the use of 1,675 plastic 2-litre bottles built into its frame.

This elegant “raft” will be moored alongside the prestigious False Creek Yacht Club and once boarded, your 6-course sustainable seafood dinner will commence.

How Does it Work?

Within this floating dining room will be a table for twelve guests. Tickets are $195 per person plus tax (when booking prior to July 31 and will be $215 thereafter). You are invited to dine with us in the warm summer air while floating on your own private dining room with an up-close view of the sailboats passing by throughout the night.

C Restaurant, one of Canada’s most recognized seafood restaurants will be catering this multi-course sustainable seafood menu (designed by chef Robert Clark) while School of Fish Foundation’s founder, Shannon Ronalds, will be serving in true fine dining style. Unique wines have also been selected to pair with each course and are included in the price.

Why Floating Plastic?

With a significant decrease in the world’s ocean resources, awareness towards both the cause and the solution must be addressed.

We are staging this summer-long awareness and fundraising campaign in order to gain public support and to positively affect the sustainable seafood supply chain while rewarding and promoting the work already in motion.

The floating plastic represents the issue of our oceans becoming a collecting ground for discarded plastic; one of the many threats to our seafood supplies.

Details of the Dining Room

All materials going into and coming out of this floating dining room will be renewable, recycled, reclaimed and/or repurposed.

Intimate lighting, soft music, designer furnishings, bone china dishes, elegant silverware and crystal glassware will all be included to add to this unique experience.

The floating plastic represents the issue of our oceans becoming a collecting ground for discarded plastic; one of the many threats to our seafood supplies.
