We enjoyed a very good lobster supper at Cardigan Lobster Suppers, which is located in Eastern PEI…read morein a quiet location near the banks of the Cardigan River. Cardigan Lobster Suppers is open seasonally during the warmer months and tourist season from 5PM to 9PM daily serving up their 5-Course Lobster Suppers, as well as other dishes (3 courses). Senior and youth portions (half size) are available for some entrees including the 5-Course Lobster Supper. We stopped by Cardigan Lobster Suppers on the way back from visiting East Point. Initially, we checked out and stopped by other lobster suppers earlier in the day including Fisherman's Wharf in North Rustico, but mutually decided to stop here since it was conveniently located along our route back west and we driving through Cardigan by 6:15 PM. The place was not that busy since it was towards the end of the season. They have a good sized indoor dining room (old style building atmosphere) and also an outside wooden patio in the back overlooking the Cardigan Harbour. We decided to take a seat outside since it was nice outside and no one was eating in the dining room. I already knew what I was going to order, which was the 5-Course Lobster Supper ($38.95 plus taxes), but my friend wanted to try the Scallops for dinner. However, they had no more scallops, so my friend decided to order the Half Size Lobster Supper ($25.95 plus taxes), which also comes with 5-Courses, but only 3/4 lb Lobster instead of the 1-1/4 lb Lobster. Coffee or tea is included in the price pf the supper. Course 1: Seafood Chowder (all you can eat): This chowder was creamy and not too rich and had celery, fish, baby shrimp, and mussels, sprinkled with paprika. We were also given a basket pf hot rolls with butter. I really enjoyed this seafood chowder and I asked for two more bowls through the course of supper. Course 2: Garden Side Salads: These fresh salads came with choice of homemade dressings and we enjoyed Mango Jalapeño and Raspberry Vinaigrette dressings on the salads. Course 3: Mussels: I was given a big bowl of PEI mussels (counted 32 mussels) and my friend was given half the amount of mussels. The mussels were cooked just right, little broth in the bowl. Course 4: Lobster: I was given a full lobster, which was strategically cut in certain locations for easy breaking (I still needed a lobster cracker). My friend was given a half lobster, cut up the middle, tamales already removed. The lobsters were served with melted butter and side plates with a boiled PEI potato, 1/3 corn on the cob, and long sliced carrots. Course 5: Desserts: Two dessert choices were offered including a Fudge Nut Brownie with Vanilla Ice Cream and a Blueberry Shortcake, so we decided to get one of each to share. The brownie was really good which was not to rich and had crunchy walnuts baked in and the vanilla ice cream was cold and light topped with chocolate syrup. The blueberry shortcake consisted of a soft piece of pound cake topped with fresh blueberries/sauce and cool whip. Overall, the food we had was very good and tasty (all courses). The dining atmosphere outside was very quiet and serene overlooking the Cardigan Harbour, but there was a tree blocking much of the view. There were also a few older older couples also having supper outside and the best part was, there were no screaming kids here during our supper. However, since we were dining outside, the flies became attracted to the food on the table, which we had to shoo-away/swat (this could also happen in my backyard too). The service was very good, as our waitress served our courses in a staged and timely order including refills on the seafood chowder and coffees. We left here very full and very content with the PEI lobster supper.

My wife and I were luckily able to get a spot in Townhouse while in the 'Nish despite our lack of a…read morereservation, thanks to the poor weather and coming in at old people, early bird-esque hours. On the upside, we were there for a good stretch of happy hour! The space is cozy, with a pub-like feel from the bar counter you can sit at, as well as a stunning main bar with lovingly detailed, darkly-stained wood. Dark wainscoting rings the room, but the charm of its previous tenants fades away from there, with a generic tile floor and basic acoustic tile ceiling. We indulged in both the liquid and solid offerings on the happy hour menu, with the salt cod fritters ($9) a couple bucks under the regular menu price. Being in town to try things out and not just go for the cheapest items, we ordered from the whole menu, tacking on the beet salad and burrata toast. We decided we'd re-assess our appetites after those three apps. The beet salad ($10) was a colourful display of Nova Scotia's late harvest season, with beautiful, thin slices of purple, pink and golden beets. The kaleidoscope of root vegetables was topped with dots of whipped ricotta, blue cheese, popcorn and pea shoots. Delicate and lightly tart, with contrasting textures of the salty and smooth whipped ricotta and the airy crunch of the popcorn added dimensionality to the dish. Also, it's impossible to go wrong with pea shoots in my books! As my wife isn't a big seafood fan, I had most of the salt cod fritters to myself, and I wasn't complaining. An herby, crisp exterior encased a pleasantly doughy and lightly fishy interior, which was amped up by the fantastic sun-dried tomato and chili oil. The burrata toast ($14) didn't have a whole, massive blob of Italian cheesy goodness, but I should have guessed that would be the case given the price. A guy can dream, right? Crisp buttery focaccia held up well to its caprese-like toppings - roasted tomatoes, pesto and, of course, a slathering of creamy burrata. Bee pollen was noted on the menu and visible on the toast, but didn't register amongst the other flavours. After three very good starters, we decided that we had room for one main between the two of us, and landed on the ricotta gnocchi ($27). I was pleasantly surprised when the plate was put before us, and I saw that the fluffy bundles of carbs and cheese were pan fried, lending a light crispness and more flavour. Most gnocchi dishes aren't too meaty, but Townhouse had a decent portion of bresaola (dry-cured beef) and guanciale (cured pork cheek), letting the thinly-sliced, but big flavours, of the Italian cured meats punch above their weight. Pesto and pea shoots reappeared to bring some vegetal balance to the dish, and a salty hit of Pecorino-Romano rounded things out nicely. Not to be outdone by the savoury parts of the menu, Townhouse's desserts are far from an afterthought. The sticky toffee ($13) was wildly decadent, with the lightly spiced sponge cake begging to sop up the heavenly caramel cream sauce and French vanilla ice cream. Although they could stand to invest in their interior design, Townhouse's kitchen speaks for itself and the well-deserved accolades it has received. A definite 'must' when in Antigonish!

We weren't all that hungry, but we knew that we needed something to tide us over for the afternoon until supper rolled around, so we ordered a pair of their Oktoberfest Sausages which are served on a hoagie bun and sauerkraut. These absolutely hit the spot! The sauerkraut ratio was perfect, something that Americans just can't seem to get right (they always seem to overdo it... sauerkraut on a hot dog or sausage should be used as a taste enhancement, not as something to drown out everything else!) We left feeling quite fulfilled, and were happy that they were open and able to serve us with something so tasty.
