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…

Best Tacos in Halifax
With the first Halifax Taco Week approaching, I thought it would be valuable to know who is making the best tacos in Halifax. But I am going on record to say: Halifax isn’t ready! We are just starting to get some quality taquerias in town, but it’s too early to start a festival based around…

The term “authentic” is problematic, as the world of food is not a static world; cultures have always mixed, cooks have always adapted, and tastes are always changing. The question of “what is an authentic taco?” will likely depend on region and generation. The “spirit” of the taco is also challenged by the availability of…

Halifax Taco Quest: The Classics
Last month I commenced my Halifax Taco Quest, as 2019 seems to be the year that Halifax finally gets its “taco boom”. We haven’t had much of a craze since the gourmet burger/fro-yo boom, but here we are in 2019 freaking out about tacos and doughnuts. I started out with a Vegan Taco Quest, where…

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…

Top 10 Vegan Junk Foods in Halifax
I’ve always noticed that vegan & vegetarian restaurants seem to serve healthy food. Even a standard burger is likely to have some sort of sprout on it, and I’ll bet ya anything it comes with roasted potatoes or a kale salad! Look – plant-based diets are generally pretty healthy, and the people who follow them…
