Local and Organic, what more can I say. Life is Good.
Chicken Rice, still my favorite and had this the very first time when I was in Singapore, visiting my online g/f.
Funky colored lobster had been appearing on our shores for the last few years. Everyone was excited when we had our first blue lobster and I had asked some who had cooked and eat them if they tasted any different, apparently not. Lobster pigmentation was what caused the lobster to turn blue according to some fishermen in town. Whether it is for a fact or not I don’t know for sure.
The Coffee Coach Express aka train station is open for business again. We used to love going there till one day .. we got bad ice cream, YES ! bad soft serve ice cream at that, from that day on, the spouse didn’t want to eat there anymore. But everyone deserve a second chance and since summer is round the corner, I might just be able to convince her to try the train snacks again.
Right by the waterfront, where everything is happening during the summer and since the town is expecting the Mega-Yacht to come in, it is actually a goldmine if they know how to manage this snack place. They have lobsters, calamari, fish and chips, fries and many other snack stuff and all sorts of colorful drinks.
Unfortunately, they are a lot pricier than most places for a snack shack, and only during days where they have events on the waterfront, they get some business, even then I feel they can do a lot better. The Coffee Coach is now owned by Rudders, they used to be own by someone else outta town who had another restaurant but I guess he didn’t want the hassle no more? Hard to do business in this town because it is so hard to get good workers.

My favorite munchie store – been here before I was in high school. Now that has gotta say something right. Whether you need a newspaper, a drink, a snack or a sandwich, they even have ice cream – here is where you go.
Loads of munchies
I love cheese but not so much into cream cheese. Unfortunately, for me the wife loves anything healthy, so sometimes she indulges in cream cheese but of course it had to be light cream cheese with a toasted sesame seed bagel from Tim Hortons. She pretty much tasted all kinds of bagel from all over the world and she finds Tim Hortons bagel one of the best when it is eaten hot. But nothing beats having a smoked salmon with cream cheese anything bagel toasted. So if you are headed this way – Atlantic Canada or anywheres in Canada, Tim’s bagel is cheap and good.
A friend’s kid had her birthday the other day and his sister had baked this cake entirely on her own from scratch. Since the kid wanted a princess cake, she made one that looked like a princess crown. Those pink and black stuff i think are bubble gums. They tasted pretty good too – one thing the Western gals are good at is the baking and the cookie making.

This cake was home made, I’ll have to say the friend’s sister is very talented. I was impressed and so was the birthday boy. Really, really home made, the next time my kid has a birthday, I’m gonna get her to do one for her. Look at how detail the cake is, you have to give her an A+ for the cake. No I didn’t get the recipe on how to bake it but the wife is not into baking, more into cooking and eating out in restaurants, so I didn’t ask for the recipe. But if you need it, let me know and I’ll try and get it for you. I can imagine how much work it is to make one of this.
A slightly healthier version of snacks, only 90 calories for one serving. As it is the wife already thinks i eat too much munchies, so she suggested this for me instead. BBQ flavored, pretty good but the bites are so small and they are so airy for me. But nevertheless, at $2.49 a pack – it’s not bad if you want to stay healthier.
The bulk barn had been opened like almost a year now and when it first started, like everything else everyone was raving about it. But it’s not as cheap as they want us to think. A trip to bulk barn for the 3 of us can come up to easily $20 and the wife and the kid don’t eat a lot of munchies at that. Can you imagine, the families that comes with junk food kiddos ? daylight robbery the wife said.
We picked a little of everything, so that we can get to try everything that looks interesting in the store. But the wife said not to get the turkish delight, it is nothing like the ones, you get from a Greece nor a greek restaurant. Quite the disapointment especially there is a no tasting policy.
