It's a Party!
See All Lists
1. Ristorante a Mano
When I want great Italian ambiance and fantastic food, A Mano is one of my favorite places in the city. Yes, I can't eat everything on the menu (lots of delicious dairy and gluten abound!), but I can find plenty of pleasing options that fill my…More »
2. The Mongolie Grill
Some people might be put off with the fact that you (yes, you!) take part in cooking your own meal at the Mongolie Grill, but most people, including myself, love it!
As someone with many diet restrictions / sensitivities, I get to choose exactly what…More »
3. The Hunt Club - CLOSED
When I read about The Hunt Club opening, I was immediately intrigued. A bar, a restaurant, a clothing shop, oh my!
At first glance, it's a comfortable atmosphere, with gorgeous goods for sale and a bar off to the side. I originally walked in with a…More »
4. Nocturne: Art At Night
I absolutely adore Nocturne. So much so, that I ensure month's in advance that my evening will be free, as I do not, under any circumstances, want to miss out on the fun.
For some, Nocturne means socializing downtown, for others it's taking in unique…More »
5. Rogue's Roost Brew Pub
Halifax, NS B3J 1G1
(902) 492-2337
Categories:
Pubs,
Canadian (Traditional),
Music Venues
I've been to the Rouge's Roost a few times now, and it's always enjoyable.
For the longest time, I didn't even know that it was also a microbrewery; you'd never guess from the exterior. But, once you're inside, you get a great view of the street…More »
6. Da Maurizio Dining Room
Oh wow. Who wouldn't love this place?
I've only dined here a couple times, and each time has been with a large group. Group dining in any setting can be a challenge, but at Da Maurizio's, they make it as enjoyable as possible without missing a beat.…More »
7. Putting Edge
I'm almost embarrassed to say that I'm willing to spend a Sunday afternoon at glow-in-the-dark mini-putt, but aw, heck! Who cares? It's actually a lot of fun, and the glow in the dark setting is pretty entertaining.
So, if you feel you need an excuse…More »
8. alFresco filmFesto
I've been awaiting an opportunity to attend the alFresco filmFesto since 2009, and this year, I've finally experienced the joy of sitting on the waterfont to see a familiar and favourite flick on the outdoor screen.
Get ready to pack up the lawn…More »
9. Il Mercato
I can't ever say enough good things about Il Mercato. I've eaten many times at both the Spring Garden and Bedford locations, but since this is the place that I'm most familiar with, I'm going to put my five stars here.
Why five stars?
Service - Yes,…More »
10. Your Father's Moustache
Halifax, NS B3J 1H5
(902) 423-6766
Categories:
Canadian (Traditional),
Gastropubs
The Moustache is one of the most reliable places downtown to get some grub. Burgers, chicken fingers, nachos, club sandwiches and lots of other typical things are on the menu; weekends and holidays have a good brunch selection.
There's lots of tables…More »
11. Hamachi Steakhouse
The Hamachi Steakhouse has recently undergone some renovations, and it now incorporates a few more seating options, in addition to the traditional Teppanyaki tables.
I've been to the Hamachi Steakhouse a few different times, but never for Teppanyaki.…More »
12. The Old Triangle Ale House
The Old Triangle, to me, is one of the most reliable drinking hangouts in the city. It's a favourite of mine for a number of reasons - good pub grub, great live music, awesome bar staff and a cool atmosphere.
This place is normally a busy spot, so…More »
13. Athens Restaurant
I've been to Athens numerous times - most often for brunch. All in all, it's a decent brunch location, has decent prices and offers a huge menu so I don't think that anyone would be able to complain about not finding something they like.
When I have…More »
14. Canadian Blood Services
So, I've been chicken to donate blood for as long as I can remember, but as a goal for 2012, I wanted to face my fear and do something good.
I had a complete blast donating blood this past weekend at the Bayers Road location! The staff are amazing…More »
15. Emera Skating Oval
Having the Oval return to the Commons is probably the best thing that could happen over winter.
I'm not a great skater, but that doesn't really matter. It's fun just to try! And, the space is huge, so you can spread out and take things at your own…More »
