perfection and piled high atop an open-faced sandwich. Served piping
hot, it is bound to hit the spot, especially once the winter chill sets in.
LOBSTER-TOPPED FISH CAKES IN BARRINGTON
When in Nova Scotia, you can never have too much lobster and there
is no better place to enjoy this delicious crustacean than the Lobster
Capital of Canada—Barrington. Head to Captain Kat's Lobster Shack
and pull up a chair. Now get ready for good old-fashioned Maritime
hospitality and some of the tastiest lobster around. While their lobster
roll is award-winning, go for the lobster-topped fishcakes. Two mon-
strous fishcakes are made with plenty of seasonings smothered in
their homemade creamed lobster. It will certainly keep you fuelled for
your culinary adventures.
SHRIMP PO' BOY IN SHELBURNE
Home to the world's third largest natural harbour, it comes as no sur-
prise to find plenty of sea-based eats in Shelburne. If your stomach's
rumbling, stop in at The Emerald Light. You cannot miss the contem-
porary deep green exterior as it pops out amongst the other buildings
on Water Street. Find light and hearty eats as well as an extensive bev-
erage list. Do not miss the Shrimp Po' Boy on a pretzel bun with leafy
greens, succulent shrimp, hearty strips of bacon and a homemade
mayo drizzle. It pairs perfectly with their house-made cucumber
lemonade.
LUNENBURGER IN LUNENBURG
What do you get when you top six ounces of freshly ground local beef,
smoky mozzarella cheese, juicy bacon strips, crisp arugula, garlic aioli
with scrumptious lobster in a savoury tarragon butter sauce on an
artisan bun topped with… yes, a bacon-wrapped scallop? Say hello to
The Lunenburger. The masterpiece is only available at the Grand
Banker Bar & Grill! At this Maritime pub, you will need two hands to
contain the monster as you sink your teeth into this beast of a sand-
wich. It will be messy but worth every last finger-licking bite.
