The Buccaneer's Pub is Saint John's oldest pub, and it is located on the west side of the city, close to Moosehead Breweries and Simms' Corner. The Buccaneer's Pub is known for its reasonably priced food and craft beer, and it was time I rated a new place in Saint John for the first time in a while. Buccaneer's Chicken Nachos - October 2019 Buccaneer's Chicken Nachos - October 2019 Distribution of Toppings All the toppings and cheese were fairly distributed on the pita nacho chips. Keep in mind, however, that there were not a lot of layers on the nachos so it would have been hard to mess up the distribution of toppings. In addition, some of the outside chips were missing some veggies and chicken. Quality The pita chips were fresh and I liked how there were two different types of cheese mixed on them. However, there was not enough dip for the chips and the chicken was just alright. I feel like I was spoiled with that chicken from the Moque Tortu...

Maxwell's Plum is a pub located in the downtown core of Halifax, Nova Scotia. We have found ourselves at Maxwell's Plum a couple of times now, and I think that it's safe to say that you should just go there for the beer selection and skip the nac- chips and cheese dip. Maxwell's Plum Nachos- October 2019 Maxwell's Plum Nachos- October 2019 This is normally the part where I divide my review into different sections to come to a grand conclusion; however, I think I will make an exception for this place. Let's re-visit what was written on the menu for these nachos: Maxwell's Famous Frying Pan Nachos "Maxwell's salsa, green onion, sliced black olives, and jalapeños topped with double cheese, just right for dipping.....served in Maxwell's frying pan with a side of nacho chips and real sour cream." They did not lie on the menu as the picture shows exactly what is in the description. I am just thinking that people who come to a pub...

In the past, there were a few opportunities for me to try one's homemade nachos, and this was one of the times. I may be toning it down with going to restaurants and rating nachos for a while; however, you never know what is to come for the future of the Nacho Blog. There are a few places where the rating has expired and I will have to re-visit soon. Cathleen invited us over for some nachos and we had been talking about this nacho experience all summer. October rolled around, and it was time to experience something that was better than many restaurants on this blog. I give you, Cathleen's nachos: Cathleen's BBQ Chicken Nachos- October 2019 Cathleen's BBQ Chicken Nachos- October 2019 Cathleen's Chicken Nachos- October 2019 Cathleen's Chicken Nachos- October 2019 Cathleen's Beef Nachos- October 2019 Cathleen's Beef Nachos- October 2019 When we arrived, we saw the three trays loaded with chips and toppings and we knew th...

Rustico is located in the downtown core of Fredericton New Brunswick's "South Side". In addition, Rustico is known mostly for its pizza, but what you may not know is that it is the sponsor for the 5km of the Fall Classic race! Of course, we did not have pizza and decided to do further research for the blog by having their nachos. I think nachos are important to give you carbs for a 5km race, and this is why you have nachos for lunch (Maxwell's) and supper (Rustico)! Rustico Ribs Nachos- September 2019 Rustico Ribs Nachos- September 2019 Distribution of Toppings As you can see from the picture, there was a lot of cheese on the nachos and there was never a dull moment with the chips. Keep in mind, however, that there is not a large mountain of chips so there was not much to layer. Quality Let's start off with the negative: a couple of chips were burnt. The experience kind of reminds me of my experience with Freddie's Pizza where the nachos tast...

Maxwell's Restaurant & Bar is located in the heart of downtown Fredericton, New Brunswick inside the Beaverbrook Crowne Plaza hotel. When I say downtown Fredericton, I mean the "South Side", which has the universities and colleges as well as The Snooty Fox (The Excellence) . I noticed that previously we did not have a lot of representation on this blog when it comes to Fredericton. My Fredericton pictures of nachos consisted of a lot of Snooty Fox Beef Nachos (with steak pieces for beef!). When visiting another area and having the intention to have nachos, it comes to a point where you are making a choice between: 1) why question a good thing? or 2) maybe there is better out there. On our trip, we opted for #2 this time. Did we make the right call? Maxwell's Chicken Nachos - September 2019 Maxwell's Chicken Nachos - September 2019 Distribution of Toppings The distribution of toppings was lacking when we had Maxwell's nachos on a hot afternoon ...
