"Sure, you could eat next to water. Or, you could eat on it. The Prince Regent is a floating restaurant on the Union Canal from the London Shell Co, and it’s like meals on wheels, but with no wheels and a lot more oysters. This canal boat serves a set seafood cruising menu and though it reads slightly novelty, this is a genuinely lovely experience. Particularly in the evening, where it feels like a romantic and very British mixture of Titanic and The Talented Mr Ripley. Only with far fewer fatalities. The Grand Duchess is another Paddington canal boat restaurant from the same people—but it’s permanently moored." - jake missing, rianne shlebak, sinead cranna
