A Halifamous guide Published Updated

Meet Lindsay Misiner — the East Coast Music Award–nominated Halifax vocalist captivating hearts one soulful note at a time. Her sophomore album is out now, and when she's not in the studio, you'll find her driving up and down Gottingen Street at least five times a day just to see what's going on.
I drive up and down Gottingen St. at least five times a day just to see what's going on. It's a ritual. I'm nosy.

Bar

The watering hole, my home away from home — the place where I feel like I'm already a celebrity. There's nothing like Ronnie's steak and egg breakfast or the classic Jenny's burger.

Casual Bite

I have been going to Salvatores for 14 years. Yes, 14 years. I consider myself the customer of the decade and I kind of feel like I have partial ownership of the place.

Would you guess that "the original" is my favourite slice? A veggie hero with extra pickles and a blood orange San Pellegrino is the move. I have never sent a thing back — this place is probably my favourite restaurant in Halifax.

Casual Bite

R&B Kitchen isn't just the best soul food in town — it's a place built on family values and community. Every single meal at this restaurant absolutely slaps and I've heard their staff are the best staff in the city 😉

Casual Bite

I am known to like a good sandwich, and I am also known to know what good food is. Buddy's fresh subs are absolutely delicious. My favourite is the Caprese, as I am a full on cheese addict and I'm not afraid to admit it.

Not to mention the staff make you feel so at home every single time.

Casual Bite

I have recently discovered the beef teriyaki poke bowl at Jukai. Perfectly cooked medium-rare beef, crispy yam tempura, creamy avocado and more, all layered over rice and fresh lettuce… just thinking about it makes my mouth water!

Beauty

Jenny Zinck from Uptown Salon & Spa always keeps me looking and feeling my best. I get my brows, lashes and brazilian done at Uptown. A staple in my everyday life.

Person

There is an elderly gentleman that drives a rascal scooter up and down Gottingen St. daily, sometimes he goes down by the Metro Centre — I just love the guy. He kind of looks like Little Critter, the children's book character from the 90s.

Neighbourhood

I drive up and down Gottingen St. at least five times a day just to see what's going on. It's a ritual. I actually have places I'm going, but I typically will use Gottingen as the main archway to get there just because I'm nosy.

It's where I grew up, so I need to know the low-down.
