Since we included Rockingham within Clayton Park I figured it would make enough sense to include Armdale within the Fairview Pizza Quest. The Armdale pizza shops: Euro Pizza Armdale Pizza (*Now Closed) (Yes, we did these before on the West End Halifax Pizza Quest but we are revisiting them here). The Fairview pizza shops: Velos Pizza (*now closed) Ken’s Seafood […]
In 2014 I did a Halifax Peninsula Pizza Quest. In 2015 I conquered Dartmouth. Now in 2016 I’m going to tackle Clayton Park, Fairview and Spryfield! I have been told that this quest should be called the Clayton Park/Rockingham Quest but that’s a long title so call it what you want. (Truth: I never knew Rockingham was a place until […]
To see the rest of the Dartmouth Pizza Quest, check out my posts on Downtown Dartmouth, Woodside/Eastern Passage, Cole Harbour and North End Dartmouth. Welcome to the last leg of the Dartmouth Pizza Quest! If you are scratching your head at my “East Dartmouth” designation, this is the area east of Lake Mic Mac and Lake Charles, with Main St. and […]
“Weirdest Quest Yet” – Halifax ReTales Our latest conquest of the Dartmouth pizza scene was finding the best pizza in North End Dartmouth. Click this pizza link to see everything Eat This Town has conquered thus far. Much thanks to our host, Danielle, who connected with me on r/Halifax, and her boyfriend Jordan who helped us eat some pizza! This […]
The Dartmouth Pizza Quest is now 3/5ths complete! Check out the Downtown Dartmouth Quest and the Cole Harbour Quest if you’re not up to date. Much thanks to Meghan and Matthew, our lovely Eastern Passage hosts! The core pizza team was back in action: Denton Froese, Halifax ReTales, LA Doomguts and myself. Anne, one of our hosts from Downtown Dartmouth, […]
I realize that Cole Harbour is not technically part of Dartmouth, but it makes sense to include it within the Dartmouth Pizza Quest, so here it is! Much thanks to our hosts, Ann & Gil for their wonderful hospitality! Ann’s watermelon agua fresca and rhubarb pies almost stole the show! We ordered pizzas from the following: Anapolie PizzaAlexandra’s PizzaBasha Pizza […]
This year I’ve decided to take my pizza quest to Dartmouth! Just like the Halifax Pizza Quest, I will be dividing Dartmouth up into “pizza neighbourhoods” and ordering pizzas from all the shops in each zone for side-by-side analysis. The pizza zones are as follows: Downtown DartmouthNorth End DartmouthWoodside/Eastern PassageEast DartmouthCole Harbour I realize that Cole Harbour and Eastern Passage […]
SOMO (South of Morris) is brimming with gourmet, artisanal, authentic, fancypants, thin crust, Italian-style pizza – or whatever you want to call it. Whereas the Pizza Quest at large is generally a pepperoni & pajamas affair, I mustn’t ignore the restaurants offering night-out-on-the-town fare – something you put on a shirt for, and enjoy with a glass of wine. Everyone has […]
The Halifax Peninsula Pizza Finals were a success! My Pizza Team was joined by other participants for a total of 20 judges, tasked with scoring what we determined to be the 7 best pizzerias in Halifax proper. That’s 20 people – 14 large pizzas, and the biggest event I’ve ever organized! Joining us this evening was Josh Rankin of Life […]
*** Voting is Now Over (and has been for a long time!)*** I have directed my attention this year to the state of delivery pizza in Halifax. I have divided up the entirety of Halifax (a.k.a. the HRM) into pizza neighbourhoods, and, beginning with the peninsula, I have organized pizza parties where my friends and I critique all of the […]
