All-You-Can-Eat Sushi Quest: An Introduction
All-you-can-eat sushi: a dining experience that encourages you to abandon all good sense and etiquette. A cuisine that is still just “foreign” enough that many people have not yet explored beyond the maki roll. A dining format that is clearly North American. Yes, we are taking a modest cultural cuisine and making it full-on ridiculous. A proper sushi…

Brunch at the Foggy Goggle
Looking back at my brunch blogs from 2014, I realize I did not eat nearly enough brunch. So my new year’s resolution for 2015 is to eat brunch at least once a month. That’s 12 months of brunch! I got an early start this month by rallying up a crew to meet up at the…

Halifax Pizza Quest: The Gourmet Pizzas of SOMO
SOMO (South of Morris) is brimming with gourmet, artisanal, authentic, fancypants, thin crust, Italian-style pizza – or whatever you want to call it. Whereas the Pizza Quest at large is generally a pepperoni & pajamas affair, I mustn’t ignore the restaurants offering night-out-on-the-town fare – something you put on a shirt for, and enjoy with a…

Brunch at Robie St. Station
Ever since I moved back to Halifax I’ve noticed that we don’t have many brunch specialty restaurants. We excel in greasy diners, and we have pubs and trendy restos that serve brunch, but the amount of spots dedicated to this meal are few and far between. Jane’s on the Common was known for its brunch,…

Sandwich Showcase: Blackened Chicken Panini at Tom’s Little Havana
After eating the Cuban Doner at Tom’s Little Havana, I felt compelled to also showcase the Blackened Chicken Panini. Apparently it is the more popular of the two sandwiches – and it sounds delicious! This sandwich is described thusly: “Blackened chicken breast panini on Lebanese pita bread with pineapple, salsa, chipotle mayo, red onion, mozzarella and…

Sandwich Showcase: Cuban Doner at Tom’s Little Havana
A “Cuban Doner” sounds like a cross between a cuban sandwich and a donair (or more appropriately, a doner kebap). In reality, it does neither sandwich any justice. It bears no resemblance to the Cuban sandwich – the name is merely playing on the “Havana” reference in the bar’s name. The beef is also not…

Halifax Peninsula Pizza Finals – Vote!
*** Voting is Now Over (and has been for a long time!)*** I have directed my attention this year to the state of delivery pizza in Halifax. I have divided up the entirety of Halifax (a.k.a. the HRM) into pizza neighbourhoods, and, beginning with the peninsula, I have organized pizza parties where my friends and…

Halifax Nacho Quest: Argyle Street
This past August I embarked on my first nacho quest. I gathered up a powerful nacho team from the Twitterverse, and we hit Spring Garden Road with beers and duo-tangs in hand. You can read about it here. In September I decided it was time to investigate Argyle Street. The Nacho Team for this quest…
