In March 2023, I embarked on a four-day discovery tour, partially sponsored by Discover Halifax to visit Black-owned restaurants in preparation for our Restaurant Week 2023 Spring Edition media launch.
With the Harbourfront Marriott Halifax as my home base, the goal was to visit two restaurants daily, one for lunch and another for dinner.
I practice intermittent fasting and start eating daily at about 12:00 pm. My morning routine is to drink a cup of water followed by a cup of coffee, so I end up eating two meals (lunch and dinner) a day.
Throughout my stay, I intentionally ate exclusively at Halifax's Black-owned establishments and it wasn't difficult, because Halifax has an amazing Black food scene.
