Savoury snacks: Charcuterie plates in Halifax
Sometimes, less is more. Gottingen Street’s uber-trendy Field Guide sources its charcuterie from neighbouring Ratinaud, just a block away, but resists the temptation to expand on what’s already a very good thing. The sleek, chic modern eatery habitually showcases its suppliers, and that extends to Ratinaud as well. The board comes with house-made mustard and sourdough bread, but otherwise lets the flavours of the cured meats speak for themselves. It’s the energy of the place – and the craft beer and cocktails – that provide the real accompaniment.

Go upscale: Fine dining in Halifax
Field Guide is known for their frequently changing, locally inspired menu, their inventive cocktail offerings and for being part of the new Gottingen Street food wave. This isn't white-tablecloth fine dining, but gourmet cuisine in a minimal, vaguely industrial, polished-concrete floor kind of space. Go for the taleggio and quail egg pintxo to start – the cheese is so aromatic, your palate will thank you. You won't want to stop with this dish until the pork belly and kimchi stew transports you to a fermented part of paradise.
