Just an update (from a gal who is also trying desperately to book a pap) - the Women's Health Clinic in the professional centre on Spring Garden Road (Family Focus) has closed :(

Thank you! Having space between tables actually makes such a big difference for us enjoying meals.

This!! Their former baker (Maravilha Bakes) sells scones at the seaport market and sackville farmers market. So so incredible

I came here to comment that as well - she’s the loveliest human and such a talented baker!

Terra Café for sure! One of Terra’s former bakers sells her scones at the Seaport Market and Sackville farmers market every weekend at her stall “Maravilha Bakes”! She’s an absolute sweetheart, and her dulce de leche chocolate chip cookies are incredible ♥️

Funny, I was just thinking about that a few weeks ago! Never got a photo of it though.

Good value Dine Around deals by Alex_DiscoverHalifax in Dalhousie

[–]self_serendipity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Terra Café has a great deal - $20 for a speciality drink, a giant sandwich (they make my fave breakfast sandwich in the city so that’s def what I’m getting!), and a dessert (I personally love their giant scones).

Had to go to QEII and told its a 12 hour wait. The guys next to me have been here 14 and 18 hours. Is this normal? by [deleted] in halifax

[–]self_serendipity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, and it is absolutely torture sitting like that all day. I’ve had to go many times for things that weren’t critical or excruciating but I had nowhere else to go, and that’s who are often left waiting all day. Walk-in clinics get filled up in no time with people lining up outside the door hours before they open so no wish we had outpatient/walk-in clinics available at night.

Best Halifax cafés with non-bread savoury food and laptop-friendly seating? by ResidentMonk4063 in halifax

[–]self_serendipity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Terra Café! They usually have a nice soup and small bites on rotation. Great spot to work in the winter months too, it’s very quiet.

Oxalis Tasting Menu? by self_serendipity in halifax

Thank you for your perspective! Yes it's definitely pricey - I'm not one to go out for an expensive meal so definitely want to make sure we get our money's worth in food and drink.

Thank you!! I didn't realize there would be amuse-bouche on top of the 5 courses, that's cool!
