Food Friday: New fave local restaurants

Today for Food Friday, I wanted to share some of my favourite local restaurants. I tried not to overwhelm you but there are a number in the city that I really do enjoy and go back to regularly. I've also included one place that I have tried a single time but really enjoyed so am recommending it. 

Favourites
Chanoey's Pasta  - 9.5/10
41 Portland St, Dartmouth
https://www.chanoeyspasta.com

It was opened by a married couple and named after two characters from the show Friends. A couple of their pasta dishes do have chili flakes in them so if you can't handle heat, request to have none added. They have daily pasta specials, sandwiches and salads as well. 

Stone Pizza  - 9.5/10
79 Alderney Dr, Dartmouth
https://stonepizza.ca

One thing I like about their pizzas is that if I have it for lunch, I am still full by supper time and I am one to need a snack or two in the afternoon. I haven't tried their dessert pizza but it looks delicious. If you have a dietary restriction, they also do vegan and keto pizzas.

Krave Burger  - 9/10
5680 Spring Garden Rd, Halifax
http://www.kraveburger.com

Speciality burgers (with non-traditional toppings) seem to be very popular the past decade and that is what Krave Burger does with local and fresh ingredients. Their sides are also good especially the mac & cheese. 

2 Doors Down  - 8/10
1533 Barrington St, Halifax & 149 Hector Gate, Dartmouth
https://www.go2doorsdown.com

We have had this a number of times and I haven't had anything that I don't like but they don't have a lot of options for me. It's a fancier restaurant but really cozy especially at night. They have a ice cream cookie that I love however. 

Darrell's Restaurant  - 7.5/10
5576 Fenwick St, Halifax
https://darrellsrestaurants.com

I would say this is my mom's favourite restaurant. They've done a really good job at adapting to take-out but they have plenty of room for dining in as it is two levels. Famous for their milkshakes and peanut butter burger. 

Tried & enjoyed

Cheeky Neighbour
6024 Quinpool Rd, Halifax

Mom and I visited the Cheeky Neighbour for the first time in February during Dine Around and had a sausage benedict and it was really good. They open mid-morning even during the week and have breakfast daily.
