You Gotta Eat Here!

John hits the Rock Cod Café in Cowichan Bay, BC famous for mouth-watering dishes like The Captain’s Plate, stacked with deep-fried goodness including halibut, prawns, oysters, scallops and calamari. Even for John’s appetite, that’s a really big catch!

Over in Halifax, NS, The Armview Diner remains an institution since the 50s. Their fish comes strait from the shore through their door, and John follows in order to get cooking and serve updated classics to a new generation of Haligonian hipsters. From fish fries, to seafood burgers and salads, Haddock is the catch of the day.

Host John Catucci sinks his teeth into Halifax, NS’s Best Pizza Pie for over 10 years running at Salvatore’s Pizzaiolo Trattoria, where the cheese goes under the sauce putting it’s taste over the top!

Serves authentic comfort foods in a big way, including a bucket filled with chocolate mousse and brownies.

John Catucci dishes up non-traditional breakfast treats at a new Toronto, ON favourite, Uncle Betty’s Diner, where the eggs benny is served on freshly made, in-house doughnuts. Don’t knock it ‘til you’ve tried it!

A burger staple that offers bacon and peanut butter on a quarter pound of dripping goodness. When you see it, the only question is, smooth or crunchy?

Locals line up for juicy menu items such as a better-than-mom’s meatloaf and mash and a big and meaty, super cheesy, crab and lobster mac’n cheese.

John takes a bite out of history with paper thin Finnish-style pancakes served there for nearly a century.
