First off, Crescent Street in Montreal has the best Restaurants in the city. There are so many fancy restaurants to choose from and the variety of cuisines is stellar.
So if you want Pasta go here. This place is massive but don't let that stop you if you're trying to avoid a crowd. The vibe is great and the decor is wonderful. The portions you receive are way to big. It's Pasta for a King! Oh..btw. The bread that they give you when you first arrive is amazing.
This place is a lot of fun!
Hidden in the back corner of Scotia Square is this great little gem. Though the shop has quite a simple name the stylists that work here are fantastic. If you happen to walk by and need your mop chopped go see Paula. She's the best! Not only is she funny, friendly and helpful but she is one of those people you could just talk to for hours. I really can't say enough good things about her.
Last week I decided to stop in to the warehouse for brunch. I was told that brunch is fantastic at the BW so my expectations were quite high.
I ordered the BLT Sandwich with home fries and a coffee. The sandwich was simply to die for. This is no ordinary BLT in any way shape or form. They put their own spin on this classic sandwich. For those of you with a large appetite take note, it's huge. The home fries are out of this world. Maybe my favourite in the city even. It's safe to say that they certainly don't hold back on the portions at the BW.
My only issue is that their coffee is just 'okay'. Being a bit of a coffee snob I was hoping their brew would of been 'up to snuff'. Don't let that stop you from going though as most people probably wouldn't even notice.
I stopped in the Argyle after work today on the hunt for some beers and appetizers.
With my tasty Corona I ordered some Greek Wings that the waitress sold me on. Oh my were they good! So good in fact that i'm going back in a few days to get some more. This was totally unexpected as I never really heard good things about the Argyle other than their pizzas and their desserts were top notch.
If you go.. get these wings!
I love the Foggy Goggle. It's probably my favourite restaurant on Argyle Street. It's located right next to the popular Economy Shoeshop in downtown Halifax NS. The staff at the Goggle are very friendly and the restaurant decor is very warm and has that cozy 'feel right at home' feeling.
They have a fantastic selection of beers. You can often find Guinness (one of my favs) on tap and on special. I highly recommend trying out their nachos and quesadilla's as well. Also, I'd try to stop in for lunch and check out the specials if I were you. I recently had a pulled pork sandwich and potato leek soup which was out of this world.

Cabin Coffee is one of those places I always seem to forget about. This is probably because it's on Hollis street and not near the popular Argyle and Spring garden locations. However, it's not too far out of the way and it's certainly worth making a trip.
I'd have to say their coffee is on par with the best spots in Halifax. The decor in the shop is great. It's very cozy and there are lots of sofa's to sit back and enjoy your java. The service is very friendly and they are always quick to recommend staff favourite treats. Each time I visit I make a conscious effort to order a different blend of coffee. I've yet to be disappointed.
I'm a big fan of this place. The fireside is one of the most cozy bars in Halifax. The upstairs is wide open with a terrific 'sun type' room while the basement is as cozy as a warm basement in the winter. There are fire places all over the bar in both the upstairs and the basement.
If you happen to go...try some of their starters. The Goat Cheese dish is superb and the nachos are top notch. The artichoke dip could be a little better but you can't win them all I guess.
I don't eat fast food much. I generally try to avoid 'junk food' at all costs. But let's just say I'm lucky that there isn't an Arby's in Halifax.
Whenever I happen to be around Bedford I make it a priority to stop at Arby's. Why? because I love their curly fries that's why! Their fries are worth the trip alone. Their roast beef sandwiches are generally a staple of mine as well. Recently I started going for their Chicken & Swiss burger which is simply amazing.
My only issue with Arby's is the price. I think in general it is a little too high. Sure the quality of food is better then a McD's but c'mon already, at the end of the day it's still fast food.
4 stars! If the price was a touch lower I'd give it 5.
