After my first encounter with fried clams, someone told me I had to try “Ozzie’s Lunch.” I’ve completely forgotten who it was (leave a comment if it was you!) but I remember that person saying it was a popular destination for RCMP officers and those guys always know where the best local eats are. I [...]
I want to marry Tadich Grill — if, you know, humanoid-restaurant unions were socially accepted, and legally recognized. The restaurant has been around for 159 years — in its current location since 1967 — and is a total legend in San Francisco. Tadich is old-school, with almost an old-boy’s club feel in the dark wood, the [...]
Yes, Fisherman’s Wharf is a tourist trap but it’s worth visiting for an hour or two if only to have some fresh seafood and gawk at the noisy sea lions on nearby Pier 39. There’s a wax museum (which always freaks me out) and a Ripley’s Believe it or Not! museum, but I would much [...]
Our second dinner at the Rossmount Inn was part of the amazing package deal I wrote about before. We had a choice of three-courses from the menu and unlike other places, they didn’t care if we nixed one dessert for an extra appetizer. Oh swoon – flexibility AND great food. I was blown away by [...]

But we were so tired once we checked into the Rossmount Inn that we decided to stay for dinner, even though we had the next night booked there as part of a package deal. I’m so glad [...] UPDATE July 2009: Gould’s Fried clams is now closed, replaced by a Chinese-Canadian buffet.
I had promised Jason I’d show him what a real lobster roll looked like — to compare to the flavourless $18 foot-long lobster sub he once had from Subway — before the end of our trip. As we were running out [...]
Growing up, whenever someone mentioned the Maritimes, I pictured in my head colourful wooden buildings along a coastline. I’m sure that was because of postcards I had seen as a kid. Kind of like how you think of the Eiffel Tower for Paris or the pyramids for Egypt. Turns out my iconic image is Lunenburg, [...] I know Halifax has scores of excellent restaurants downtown and on the waterfront but I wanted to try a laid-back gem that only locals know about. My friend and Haligonian Tom M. directed us to Jane’s on the Common and boy, was it a perfect recommendation. Jane’s faces the Common, a huge park with soccer fields, [...] |
