floating restaurant

Dine on water

A floating restaurant is an eating establishment built on a boat, barge, or platform moored on water.

Some are stationary while others cruise during meals: We had dim sum at the famous floating restaurant in Aberdeen Harbor.

The concept is particularly associated with harbors in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia, though floating restaurants exist worldwide.
