🇨🇦 Nova Scotia Food Adventure: 3 Days Wasn't Enough! (With Prices)

Just drove from PEI to Halifax for Thanksgiving weekend, and wow—Halifax's food scene made me feel like a country mouse in the big city! 🐭🏙️ From fiery Sichuan dishes to smoky BBQ and dreamy desserts, three days wasn't nearly enough to eat through it all. Here’s my foodie treasure map, complete with price ranges to help you plan! 🌶️ Chinese Food Szechuan Restaurant Must-Order: Stir-fried pork with chilies (authentically spicy!) + Ants Climbing Trees (mildly spicy glass noodles). Vibe: Bustling with takeout orders; easy parking. Price: $20–30 CAD per person. Little Jade Guilin Rice Noodles Pro Tip: Dine in for the best experience (takeout via Fantuan is decent but not the same). Price: $15–20 CAD per person. 🍖 BBQ Bliss Boneheads BBQ Slow-Cooked Magic: Ribs and brisket fall off the bone, slathered in house sauce. Price: $25–35 CAD per person. Busan Korean BBQ Highlights: Kimchi pancake, spicy pork bone soup (Gamjatang), and DIY table grilling. Tip: Book ahead—it’s popular! Price: $20–30 CAD per person. 🍮 Sweet Escapes Sweet Hereafter Cheesecakery Heavenly Slices: Salted caramel cheesecake is irresistible. Price: $8–15 CAD per slice. Dee Dee’s Ice Cream Fresh & Fruity: Mango sorbet tastes like summer. Price: $5–10 CAD per scoop. 🍷 Western Flavors The Five Fishermen Seafood Star: Oysters and lobster taste like the ocean just delivered them. Price: $40–60 CAD (depends on your seafood haul). The Bicycle Thief Italian-Coastal Fusion: Seafood pasta + local wine = perfect group dinner. Price: $30–50 CAD. 🎯 Final Thoughts Best Bang for Buck: Little Jade’s noodles and Busan KBBQ. Splurge-Worthy: Five Fishermen for special occasions. Sweet Tooth Fix: Cheesecake > everything else. Halifax, I’ll be back to finish what I started! #NovaScotiaEats #HalifaxFoodie #SichuanSpice #BBQLover #CheesecakeHeaven #SeafoodFeast #FoodieTravel #CanadianCuisine #EatLikeALocal #ThanksgivingFeast 🦞🍰🔥
