| - At the Yelp! Elite Cactus Club event a bunch of us were recommending favorite places and hidden gems - one that stood out to me was Scotian Style Take Out recommended by Stephanie M. The reason why it stood out to me is because I work with a bunch of guys from out East and they've been talking about Halifax donairs, garlic fingers and this 'donair sauce' - Scotian Style Take Out happen to be in the NE, in the same quadrant where I work, so it was perfect.
The next morning, I was excited to tell the guys about this place. That afternoon, they decided to check this place out and of course I tagged along. Scotian Style is located on 52nd Street NE in a little complex between convenient and liquor store. There are some designated parking spots out front. The menu is extensive, they offer donairs, subs, pizza, garlic fingers, donair eggrolls, a variety of seafood options (deep fried), platters, fries, poutine, burgers, wings and salads. It's a small take out place where you can pretty much watch them make your food. They also have some frozen items, chips, pop that you can grab and go as well.
The guys ordered large donairs with the works (onion, tomato, donair sauce), an order of garlic fingers, 6 donair eggrolls. We bought it back to the office to eat, alternatively, there's a dodgy looking picnic bench in front of the parking lot on the grass if that tickles your fancy.
The guys were super curious but excited to see if the food compared to the food out East. The donairs were double wrapped in tin foil, we soon discovered it was double wrapped to keep the donair sauce in! S took a first bite and was noticeably pleased "daaaaamn that's good" he says. I tried a bite and the meat was juicy and tender, the donair sauce was a very nice and sweet addition. Next, the donair eggrolls - exactly as written, donair meat wrapped in wonton wrappers, comes with a side of donair sauce for dipping. These were unique, they were nice, tasty and crispy...the donair sauce is a must! Eggrolls are a must try. The garlic fingers are a pizza dough topped with cheese and garlic seasoning, these were pleasant, nice and soft with that crisp you hear when you take a bite, donair sauce to dip is a must for these too. Per the easterners, the crust should be a little thinner but it was pretty close. Also, they mentioned that the sauce is really good but it should be a bit thicker. I was thinking after refrigerating the sauce for a couple hours, it would be the right consistency. Overall, they were pretty satisfied and they said that the Scotian Style Take Out is really good and pretty close to what they serve back at home - they're fans and will be back!
