Spice up your life
Someone told me yesterday about a great new spicy dish they bought at M & M Meats the other day. We quickly got into a discussion about spicy food and some of the great restaurants in New Brunswick where you can spice up your life.
In this blog post, I would like to highlight a few of them.
Chez Riz on Queen Street in Fredericton is a place everyone must try. Opened by a family with Pakistani roots, Chez Riz offers an abundance of delicious offerings in a very unique setting. You feel like you are not in Fredericton when you visit this place. Some of my favourites on the menu at Chez Riz include the lamb and the chicken tandoori.
Caribbean Flavas in Fredericton is also a great spot. Opened by a family from Trinidad, this restaurant has won many fans of its one-of-a-kind dishes and welcoming atmosphere. From samosas to a variety of seafood offerings, Caribbean Flavas has many great options for the lover of spicy food.
Mexicali Rosas in Fredericton and Saint John has been a favourite for many people for many years and for good reason. This restaurant offers a variety of very nice spicy dishes inspired by Californian-Mexican influences. It's a really nice place to visit anytime of the year. It's a place you are sure to visit again and again.
Mandarin Palace in Fredericton offers many nice Chinese and Thai dishes. The food is very, very good.
Asia Beef Noodle in Fredericton is a great restaurant to find delicious Vietnamese and Viet-Thai dishes. The food is absolutely delicious, the service is great and its a place you will not forget.
The Thai Hut in the Saint John area offers some of the best Thai food you will find in New Brunswick. Their Pad Thai is just one of many great dishes on the menu. It's got great flavour and is nice complement to almost anything.
There also many restaurants that have a different focus but will offer some great spicy dishes often. These restaurants include Opera Bistro in Saint John, Racines in Fredericton, The Blue Door in Fredericton, BrewBakers in Fredericton and Pastalli's in Moncton.
Yes, there are many great restaurants in NB where you can spice up your life. It makes living in NB much more exciting and interesting than the days of old when a trip to KFC was your best option for spicy food.
