Ratinaud Reviews
This is the best place one could go anywhere in the world for quality, meat and cheese. Frederick is a true pleasure to deal with and cures the most incredible meat at his shop. A must try if you're visiting Halifax!!
Went here in September and grabbed a late lunch the afternoon the Queen passed away. Didn't know what to expect since we were the only ones there - but the chef whipped up a spectacular dish of duck leg confit, green beans, potatoes, and some just-foraged yellowfoot chanterelle mushrooms. Got some helpful tips on mushroom hunting in Nova Scotia that I put to good use a few days later on a camping trip. Can't recommend highly enough.

The saucisson sec here is incredible. If you know the smell and taste of a real saucisson sec from France, you'll be very happy. I've been living in Canada for over 20 years and I've never had one come close to the real thing until now.The cheese selection is incredible, reasonably priced, and the house made paté is unreal. You can't go wrong.You'll spend more than you intend to, and when you get home and give everything a try, you'll have zero regrets.
