foodie friday: hopgood's foodliner

Last Friday night was one of those nights where the fridge was empty, it had been a long week of visiting with family and friends and neither D or I felt like cooking. We decided to treat ourselves and headed across the street to Hopgood's Foodliner. We snagged two bar seats and wound down with a  crisp glass of white wine and a Manhattan cocktail.

We had been for dinner soon after moving in the summer and we weren't disappointed on our second visit. The staff is comprised of a bunch of east coasters, so the atmosphere is welcoming and friendly. The menu is interesting with loads of seafood and everything we've tried has been delicious. If you're looking for a spot for a special upcoming dinner - I would highly recommend Hopgood's Foodliner - I doubt you'll leave disappointed.

 

{ The restaurant pickles their own vegetables. The variety changes each time but they're so interesting and delicious, it's a must order as a snacky starter }

 

 

{ Halifax Donairs - D and I love them after spending so much time out East, and they're sort of like the East coasts version of a gyros. The difference is donair sauce - it's sweet and paired with the slight heat of the seasoning on the meat - it's an amazing combination }

 

 

{ Always save room for dessert. The chef makes a homemade Twix bar, and it's better than a real Twix bar. Whatever description I muster up with won't do it justice - just try it }
