After moving back to the county, a return to Appleseed was inevitable. We swung by for a late…read morelunch, after the hordes of kids amped up from the arcade next door had mostly left. Now that I'm back on the East Coast, I can both trust fish at restaurants more and pay less for it, so I went with the salt cod fish cakes ($17). You know how they say your plate should have lots of different colours of food? Well this was NOT that. While this meal won't win any awards from the Canada Food Guide, it did well by my taste buds. The fish cakes themselves were loosely packed and had a pleasant punch of salty fish, and the green tomato chow brought a contrast of sweet and tangy to the mix. The side of beans had a smattering of what appeared to be bacon in it, and were just the right doneness - not chalky or mushy. Thumbs up! The corn beef hash was a bit greasy, but it was delicious - crisp bits of beef and potato with sauteed onions - it's hard to go wrong here. My wife went for the diner staple, meatloaf ($17). After this meal it became her go-to dish at Appleseed, and I can see why. The generous slab of meatloaf is light and moist, and a slathering of mushroom and onion gravy makes it even more hearty. Ultra-smooth whipped potatoes are a classic pairing, done picture perfect. A medley of veg likely came out of a massive freezer bag, and while a diner fixture, it's one that could be easily replaced with any sort of seasonal veg that is prepared in a better manner than steaming. On our return, I went with the hot chicken sandwich ($17). The roasted chicken was moist and tender, although a little sparse. A hearty slathering of gravy was good, and not too salty. I really appreciated the thick, quality bread that stood up well against the onslaught of gravy. As always, their shoestring fries were spot on. I doubled down on diner decadence and got a strawberry milkshake ($6.50) to drink. Appleseed gets a tip of my cap for using the classic milkshake glass, plus topping it with whipped cream and a maraschino cherry. Further bonus points for the extra bit of milkshake coming in the aluminum cup it was mixed in. It was a thick, tasty treat. I still wish Appleseed was in a better location with an interior that called back more to its cozy diner peers rather than strip mall industrial chic, but you can't win 'em all. It's still not easy to get more creative, casual food in Pictou County, so Appleseed is definitely an asset to the local food scene.

This fixture of Blue Acres has been around for longer than I've been present on this plane of…read moreexistence, so it's with deep shame that I admit that it was only this spring that I tried it for the first time. While looking for a quick lunch on a sunny Saturday, I was right behind a few other people who just got their food as I was ordering, putting me at the front of the queue. Owner and sole staff member Donna guided me through the highlights of her menu and I settled on the hamburger platter. Several minutes of wonderfully pleasant chit chat with Donna followed while I watched her prepare my food like a well-oiled machine. My food was soon ready, coming tightly packed on a heaped paper plate for me to eat in my car, although you can get it secured for a trip home or elsewhere. The crinkle cut fries, while unsurprisingly from a bag, were spot on, with shatteringly crisp exteriors and light, fluffy interiors. The burger was diner-style par excellence - steamed bun; a beefy, hand-made, griddle-cooked patty; melty cheese; sauteed onions, and some bite from mustard and relish. I should have nixed the ketchup to dial back the sweetness, but this was still a great little burger. A cup of house-made coleslaw was of the creamy variety, but still had a bit of tang to it, which helped cut through the rich meal a little bit. On my return visit, I went with the fish and chips. While it's a box that a lot of restaurants feel they have to check, and they do so poorly with from-frozen, pre-battered fish, I heard that Donna batters it in-house, so I was looking forward to trying it. This was a very good order of F&C. The batter was light and airy, and the two-piece was a good amount of food, with the pieces like the half filets that you'll see around, rather than the one gargantuan piece of fish that pubs often have for shock value. The fish was firm, but tender and flakey and I don't know if tartar sauce was forgotten or isn't offered, but I truly just enjoyed the fish on its own. Ceilidh Drive-In is among a dying breed of old school greasy spoons that do the simple stuff well, and while it took me a while to get there, it won't be long before I'm back.

When I heard that a new diner was opening in Trenton last fall, it immediately piqued my interest…read more With a menu that's less cumbersome (and less likely to be out of a freezer) than many of its peers, and more of an eye for menu design, it raised my hopes for diner classics that have more love (and skill) put into them. The menu has a handful each of apps, soups and salads, and burgers, plus about ten classic diner entrees. My first visit had me coming by for a late lunch, so I opted for a diner standard - the club sandwich. It was fairly quiet at the restaurant, so my food came out in quick order. The long fries were hand-cut, and on the darker side of golden brown. They were decent, but could have used a blanching in water to remove excess starch and then a double frying to make them crisper. It's hard to have a straight up bad club sandwich, and it's almost even harder to have a truly great one. Like many other restaurants, P&C's falls somewhere in the middle. The bacon was good and crisp, and while the turkey was house-roasted, I wouldn't call it an overly generous portion. The bread was toasted enough that it held up well, but didn't eviscerate my mouth, and a pleasant amount of mayo held things together. A return visit had me coming by with my wife for a late lunch on the weekend. The menu switches modes to have an all day breakfast section, as well as some of their regular items that are available after 11:30am. Leaning toward the breakfasty items, I went for the classic western omelette, while my wife opted for the Coop Deville, a fried chicken sandwich. The crowd was waning as we had arrived in the last couple hours of them being open for the day, so our food arrived quickly. My omelette was a delicious hot mess, with the added-on cheese amping up that mess factor significantly. The eggs had some nice browning like a good dinner omelette does, without being tough or rubbery. I appreciated that the home fries were hand cut, but they were greasy and not where they should have been for crispness. My wife's Coop Deville was a solid fried chicken sandwich - a thick chicken breast with a crisp coating, good amount of bacon, and a hint of sweetness from honey butter, all in a soft and squishy potato bun! P&C's could use a little polishing on their fried potato fare, but they're still a nice little diner that's using some more modern dishes to breathe some life into a familiar format.

This vibrantly yellow truck on Pictou's waterfront has been piquing my interest all summer long,…read moreand I was finally able to grab a bite recently while in the area. The menu is mostly what you'd expect from an East Coast chip wagon - fries, burger, hotdogs and fish and chips - but it does have a few items to stand out a little bit, like deep fried pepperoni, mozza sticks and a steak sandwich. We areived close to closing time, so they were out of fish and I went with their cheeseburger instead. My wife chose good ol' mozza sticks. It was a short wait, and it'd ve hard to complain with the water views anyway, and we soon had our hearty fare. My cheeseburger was minimally adorned, with just the cheese and some fried onions (optional), although you could top it yourself with ketchup and mustard by the trailer's window. The flavour was classic diner burger, with a crisp crust from cooking on a flat top, and the melty cheese and fried onions were *chef's kiss*. A lightly toasted bun further supported these spot-on burger fundamentals. With apps like mozza sticks, whether at a food truck or pub, you know they're coming from a freezer bag. However, they were still properly cooked, with golden-brown breading and melty cheese inside. The flavour took me back to my days of crushing orders of these at The Thistle for dinner while working weekend shifts at Aberdeen Cinemas! While it'd be nice to see a few more specialty dishes and/or add-ons (bacon?!) at Mama Red's, mother definitely knows best and is doing what she does very well.

Bread is toasted warm with garlic spread. This is heaven! We also ordered fish and chips as todays special for $10, again there are lots of fries, fish has a thin batter which makes it more crispy.

It closed on Monday and Tuesday, Sunday opens until 6pm but depends on when they sold out. Highly recommended, I found this place online. 1 more thing, everything is freshly made so with the lineup, you expect 15-20mins wait.

We ordered fish and chips with a switch to fries, were told there'd be no extra charge, yet later found a $4 fee on our $115 bill.
