Brunch at The Cheeky Neighbour Diner
The Cheeky Neighbour 6024 Quinpool Rd, Halifax The Cheeky Neighbour replaced Relish Gourmet Burgers late last year when owner Drew Voegeli decided to rebrand the last remaining bastion of the now-extinct franchise. The new concept is a “modern diner” with tweaked classics. “Oh, yay! It’s actually a diner,” remarked The Side Dish as we approached. Refurbished…

Brunch at Robie St. Station
Robie St. Station 2394 Robie St, Halifax My Brother and I took my Mom out to Robie St. Station for Mother’s Day Brunch on my suggestion, as it has an approachable menu and a bright, funky space. It’s just got that “brunch vibe”. I also hadn’t been there since I reviewed it in 2014, and I’ve never…

Brunch at Elle’s Bistro
Elle’s Bistro 1678 Barrington Street Website I normally wouldn’t consider Elle’s Bistro to be a brunch place, as it is in many ways a classic, family-run diner catering to the downtown lunch crowd. They serve the typical milkshakes and all-day breakfast, burgers and home-cooked meals. They also serve some less-than-typical stuff, like peanut butter burgers…

Brunch at Mappatura Bistro
My family have been fans of Chef Terry Vassallo ever since his days at Trattoria Della Nonna in Lunenburg, where we came to expect generous portions of seafood with Italian flair. We followed him to Cafe Chianti where his Linguine di Pescatore was a big hit. Terry has recently opened his own restaurant with his partner, Simone…

Brunch at Durty Nelly’s
Durty Nelly’s Irish Pub 1660 Argyle St, Halifax, NS Durty Nelly’s recently launched a new brunch menu and invited me to check it out. I was pretty much sold on the Caesar menu and the prospect of a full Irish breakfast! About that Caesar list – there are 6 signature Caesars made with 6 types…

A Full Irish Breakfast
Also in this series: Irish Pubs Ireland: Street Foods I just got back from a vacation in Ireland and of course this required a full examination of the nations’ foodstuffs! Breakfast is serious business in Ireland. In the south, you’ve got your full Irish breakfast. This varies somewhat but may involve: – fried egg –…

Brunch at Studio East
Studio East 6021 Cunard St, Halifax I recently took my pal MGyver out for a belated birthday brunch. He suggested Studio East, having been nothing but impressed with his experiences there. I hadn’t been to Studio East yet, so I was all over that. I had been to Saronn’s Kitchen at the Seaport Market, purchasing her…

Brunch at Your Father’s Moustache
I recently had a visitor from Calgary – Lu, a soon-to-be Haligonian who will assuredly be my brunch partner in times to come. Lu wanted eggs benny and it was cold out, so we ended up going somewhere close by which in this case was Your Father’s Moustache. It’s a popular spot, I told her.…

Brunch at The Coastal
The Coastal 2731 Robie St, Halifax The first time I discussed brunch on this blog was my review of The Coastal Cafe (2012). The Los Huevos Rancheros ($11.25) is just as iconic today as it was then, even though buffalo chicken has replaced the mole duck. This is one of my favourite brunch dishes in the city. I had…
