So we arrived hungry from a flight around 9 pm. We did not wanted to go far to have a have a bite on our way home.
After good experiences on other airports, we opted for SOSTA, the pizzeria inside ALT Hotel.
We were not disappointed at all. From the friendly server to the food. Since it was later in the evening we onlynordered one starter, green salad, but the server had it split in two bowls. That salad was very good, delici0us. For main we had a lumberjack pizza. That was a good choice as many styles can be a tad salty, the one was that not at all. The honey made it quite special.
Finally, we had desert. Our server came back apologizing that our first choice was no longer available, due to having been very earlier in the evening. So we took the layered ice-cream as replacement. OMG what a great decision that was. The desert was define.
SOSTA is a bit of a hidden gem for us. You can easily go here when you are hungry and passing by the airport. Easy to get here and very accommodating staff.
After dinner we decided to stay at ALT hotel. Anjam at reception, who has a really adoring posh English accent despite not being from there, at took great care of us.
In the past, when we lived in Pictou county, we used ALT hotel frequently due to early departure or late arrival. These days we live in HRM, but last night has shown us, we should do it more often. It is just too comfortable and easy instead of wearing ourselves out after a long flight and late arrival. We had a wonderful night of sleep and, after sleeping in, we left for home...

Chicken was not fresh as well, tasted like its was boiled, refrigerated overnight and then put on that tortilla "very generously". I returned it after a bite. Also tried their meatballs and rice ($15)...I told a lovely lady who served that evening that it was the most horrible rice and meatballs I ever ate in my life. Oh and it was flooded with sweet chilli sauce. I mean...sweet chilli sauce? Whyyyyyy? You won't see an Italian beside that beautiful pizza oven that they have indoor. Equipment and potential is...
Read moreThe pizza was highly disappointing. $51 for 2 pizzas that barely fed 2 people. We got the BBQ chicken and the Donair pizza. The bbq chicken was majority onions and had little to no cheese. Slabs of bbq sauce and barely any chicken. The donair pizza had wayyy too much cheese and fake donair meat. For $51 this was extremely disappointing and quite frustrating to say the least. The crust was thin as paper. Tasty but way too thin. As placing our order as well, we were hung up on 3 times before actually being able to place our order. Will never be...
