Friendship and Fine Dining and A Place to Lay Your Heads!

Friends flew in from Ontario for the last weekend of

Cloth of Time

and touched our hearts

for taking the trouble to do that.

Of course we had to eat

and

my goodness me

we found the very best restaurant

to celebrate our friendship

and catch up.

So...

If when you find yourself in Halifax, Nova Scotia

do go and eat at this new restaurant

"aFrite"

on the corner of Lower Water Street and Bishop.

Owned by

Andrew Al-Khouri

a finalist on 'Masterchef Canada'.

aFrite was his childhood nickname which

if I remember correctly

means winged devil!

Born in Cape Breton,

Andrew is welcoming and gregarious.

He talks about his Syrian influenced menu with passion

and boy oh boy that food is great!

I already know what I want to try next tie we are in Halifax.

And....

if you like old buildings and antiques

you might want to stay at the Waverley Inn

on Barrington Street.

Each room is different and beautifully furnished.
