Halifax Burger Week: Day 5
So, I was on TV. I won the Coast’s Burger Ambassador contest somehow, and got to have a little 5 mins of burger fame. You can watch the full clip here. After a long day of burgering on Sunday, I decided it was time for a break. Of course, by “taking a break” I meant switching…

Halifax Burger Week: Day 4
Day 4 was the big day! I did a big ‘ol burger crawl of downtown Halifax with my friends Em, Talix, and Tinfoil (of Burger Quest 2013). We started at 1pm, forgetting that Halifax practically closes down on Sunday afternoons! We found the Argyle open, and ordered “The Local”: Oulton’s ground beef, shredded NS lamb, poblano…

Halifax Burger Week: Day 3
Day 3 of Halifax Burger Week was devoted to veggie burgers. I wanted a nice healthy day off from all the grease and red meat. I met up with a friend at Heartwood for a “Wild Card FEED Nova Scotia Burger”. By “wild card”, I thought they meant that you get to choose one of…

Halifax Burger Week: Day 2
My first stop on the second day of Burger Week was Ace Burger at Gus’ Pub. The “Jughead Burger” is a classic cheeseburger with fried onions and bacon. Nothing too special, just a really solid burger from Ace. Satisfying as always, and delicious with a pint of Gus’ 65m Ale from North Brewing Company. Jughead…

Burger Week 2014: Day 1
First day of Burger Week was fantastic! My food team and I did a little Dartmouth crawl, but I got a head start at 11am today when some school friends detoured to Cheese Curds with me for lunch. The CC Burger Week Special is a triple cheese, bacon and mushroom melt with crispy Cajun onion…

Halifax Burger Week 2013!
When The Coast announced “Burger Week” in conjunction with 21 participating restaurants, I couldn’t have been more excited. I love the Halifax burger hype and the idea that we could be a burger destination. Burger Week gave us eight $5 burger selections, as well as 13 burger creations with some proceeds going to FEED Nova…

Crispy Cristy
***Update: Crispy Cristy is now closed*** Crispy Cristy moved into the old Extreme Pita location on Barrington Street last month, officially sending Halifax to its burger saturation point. This restaurant offers gourmet burgers, poutine, chicken, fish, pitas and salads. By “chicken” they mean strips and wings, by “fish” they mean fish and chips, and by…

Rock Bottom Brew Pub
I’m going to take a break from smoked meat sandwiches for a bit and return to burger questing! I have had some inquiries and recommendations concerning various hamburgers in Halifax, which I haven’t yet gotten to because I was focusing on “gourmet-style” burgers. Now I am going to shift my focus to pub-style burgers, and…

Halifax Burger Quest: Gourmet Burger Finals!
It’s time to announce the winners of my Halifax Gourmet Burger Quest! Just to review: I ordered signature beef burgers and French fries at each place. Veggie burgers were also reviewed. I don’t believe in numerical ratings passing as science when it comes to food analysis, but I do like categories. My bias is towards…
