Halifax & St. John's- recommendations

[Kyra.Graves]

Restaurant recommendations?

I'm going to be spending a few days on the east coast and it's been quite some time since I was last out there. I have some free time and I would love to find a nice restaurant in each city to check out. Important things for me would be location in the downtown, having a good wine list (ideally with options by the glass as I'll frequently dine solo) and vegetarian options.

Thanks!

Check out Bubble's Mansion in Halifax - partly owned by Bubbles of Trailer Park Boys. Good foor and interesting memorabilia

Restuarant in St. John's

You might try The Vault on Water Street. Not sure about vegetarian options but the wine list should be good. Lots of great little restaurants in St. John's!

Try the Wooden Monkey... limited wine selection, but 100% organic foods and many vegetarian options.

Last time I was there I ate at the Soho Kitchen on Granville. There are a lot of restaurants on this street.

In Halifax, I would go to the Press Gang... In St. John's I would recommend Blue on Water and Aqua. All have excellent food and wine lists.

Kyra, you seem like a beautiful girl. So why are you dining solo?

You can always go to a bar and pickup a guy (or vice versa) or even have your agency put you on schedule.

I like having a nice quiet meal.

Thanks guys - and those that PM'd as well. I have found some nice places in Halifax so far, there are a lot of options here and everyone is so friendly I've really made the most of my freetime.

Check out The Economy Shoe Shop on Argyle street. It's a bar/eatery with an atmosphere all it's own. A definite must see!
