It’s almost that time of year again! The Coast’s Burger Week runs from March 28th to April 3rd this year. This city-wide bonanza sees restaurants offer a one-of-a-kind burger creation with proceeds going to Feed Nova Scotia.
The Carleton’s Mañana burger is P.E.I. beef, smoked cheddar, fried egg, peameal bacon, pickled peppers, and habanero aioli, on a croissant bun. Its got a kick but it’s not too spicy!
For $10 you get the Mañana burger and The Carleton donates $1 to FeedNS. Add a side of our famous frites or green salad for $5 and another $1 goes to FeedNS! Add a Nine Locks Dirty Blonde for another fiver… and you guessed it, another $1 to FeedNS!
