Trying Something New.........January

Hey Lover,

On Sunday, I went to a Halifax Rainmen basketball game with my girl Shariena.

We had a great time and afterwards met up with the best amigo Kwame and grabbed something to eat.

Mongolie Grill is the place for this month's TRY SOMETHING NEW.  I have passed by it SO many times but never been there before.  The concept is pretty cool.  You get a bowl and you pick all the ingredients you want from 20 garden fresh veggies, meats, poultry, seafood and 18 homemade sauces and they grill it for you. The waiter brings rice and mu shu wraps and your choice of soup to complete the meal.

My choices were tonnes of mushrooms, green peppers, peanuts, onions, bean sprouts, baby corn and yummy peanut sauce.

Kwame had this

Shariena had this.

and ended the night by opening up my fortune cookie and believing that the cookie was on to something..LOL

OH BY THE WAY..lol... This is what I wore.

So go check out Mongolie Grill.  Their website is here and they are located at 1645 Granville Street, Halifax

A GRAD party & November's Trying SomeTHING new

Hey Lover, 

Hope you had a great Saturday. 

I went to a surprise Grad Party for my girl Mim.

The venue was a restaurant called 44North Ocean Bistro and since I had never been there before, what a great and budget friendly opportunity to have this as my "Try Something New" thing for November. 

my verdict on 44North Ocean Bistro you might be wondering... 

YUMMY YUMMY YUMMY!!! I had the Seafood Chowder which was rich and oh so delicious.

The prices were reasonable and the restaurant has a great view of the harbour!

Haligonians, go check out 44North inside the Marriott Harbourfront on Upper Water Street!!!

Check out the pics of what I wore, me and my girls and the yummy food that we ate. 

love,

Mo

 WARNING: Get a napkin as you are about to drool on your computer. LOL

this is what I had, the seafood chowder .. nom nom nom 

October's Trying Something New

Hey Lovers, 

So remember last month when I was part of the Try Something New initiative in Downtown Halifax,

I mentioned that I wanted to keep doing that and do something new every month. 

Well I did my October one earlier on today and this is what I did.

My friend Dali and I had lunch at The Loose Cannon. 

 Dali had the Club Wrap 

I had the Madras Chicken Curry 

Verdict ????

Dali: "I was freaking out over the hornets to the point that I almost choked on my food. LOL: and the one hornet drank my apple juice!!!
Other than the "panic" filled hour and a half, the food was pretty good! :) "

Mo:  The curry was just how I like it, had some major kick to it. Could have used a bit more chicken in it.

The service was good, our waitress was cheerful and very helpful.   The pub has a great location right on Argyle Street and is next to some of my favorite Halifax spots like The Bitter End and Q.

The only thing that I could have done without was the amount of hornets that attacked us both inside AND outside the pub.   This spoiled the experience because we had a handful of moments of freaking out when the hornets came by us.

go check it out sometime
