Halifax Donair Experience

For my second restaurant experience I chose Halifax Donair.  This hidden gem is located in Milton at 295 Main Street East. This small town delight reminds me of the sweet Maritime culinary experiences one will find on the East Coast. The East Coast donair is not like any other donair one will find elsewhere. The meat is seasoned and spiced a certain way and has a vastly different flavor. Originally the Greek and Turkish delight was made with lamb, but the Maritimers put their own spin on it.


Halifax Donairs they specialise in authentic East Coast Donairs, Pizzas and Oven Baked Subs to say a few. It is a small ‘mom & pop’ type shop, which is typically only take-out or delivery orders. They do have a small area for people to eat-in or wait for their orders.  
    

I obviously had to try their famous East Coast Donair. The Donair is stuffed with a mildly spiced beef that is served on a warm pita, topped with fresh tomatoes, onions and their famous sweet donair sauce. This is made into a cone which is then wrapped in foil with one end left open.  They come in a variety of sizes which depends on how much meat one wants in the donair. 



I got a medium donair with the works and extra sauce. It was absolutely delicious and I will most definitely be a continuous customer. It did get pretty messy once taking off some of the foil wrappings but totally worth it! If you have not tried an East Coast Donair, you are clearly missing out!
