If there's anything that should make Halifax nervous, it's this one block in downtown Dartmouth. Check it out: Two If By Sea for coffee and croissants, the Interlude Spa for pampering and prettying, and Nectar for fine dining and cocktails. They…More »

Update - 3/17/2011

Oh Morris East...you're too good to me. Last night's soundtrack of Prince's greatest hits while sipping strawberry-infused Bee's Knees cocktails? There is little better on this earth. I think I've ended up at this South End game-changer at least once…More »

Clean, classy, and hip - this is no ordinary pizza joint. With its own wood-fired oven, their thin… Read more »

4/10/2011

This unique little spot in Halifax's north end is unfortunately easy to overlook. Just a few steps from Agricola, it might be that small distance off the beaten path that keeps Chez Tess an insider's favourite. Once you pop down though, you'll be…More »

3/9/2012

Today was my first visit to Annie's Place after getting up at an ungodly hour, leading to an awkard wait for businesses in the Spring Garden area to unlock their doors. It's now located in a new spot (as opposed to the old location shown in the…More »
