*Update 2023: Over the last two years, the long-term effects of the pandemic are becoming more clear. We are still at risk of the virus (which is now easy to dismiss, but as someone who has had it twice, I can tell you that it’s not just a cold), but we are now also facing…

Halifax Burger Week: A History
As Halifax Burger Week approaches its 7th year, and grows larger and larger, I find that there are more and more people who don’t really understand the event. Since 2013, I’ve been keeping a close eye on the event, its raison d’être, its growth, its shenanigans and most importantly, the burgers. This year I’m noticing an…

Well, Burger Week is officially over and I’m all burgered out for a while. Looking forward to a nice cleansing diet and maybe a gym membership! I ate close to 16 full burgers this year, sampling 19 of them – so I got to try a third of the burgers. Due to weather/time constrictions I…

Halifax Burger Week 2014 Round Up!

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…
