Description
Halifax Tastes is the newest installment in the popular Tastes series. Halifax is famous for its flavourful seafood but as the largest city in the Maritimes, it should be no surprise that Halifax also boasts plenty of variety when it comes restaurants. From zesty Italian to spicy Thai, from tangy Chinese to carefully presented Japanese, from delightful Greek to classic Canadian cuisine, there is sure to be a restaurant to suit everyone’s liking. Easy access to Halifax’s much loved farmers’ market has allowed many of the area’s chefs the freedom to add local, fresh ingredients to their menus. Liz Feltham has chosen 27 restaurants from Halifax and Dartmouth so you can find a great spot to eat no matter where you are located. Featuring tried and tested recipes and approximately 60 mouth-watering photographs of the food and the scenery, Halifax Tastes will tempt your taste buds and give you some fantastic ideas for where to eat on a night on the town.
