Salt Shaker Deli: Shake a tail feather down to ...

One needs to always be a bit wary when in tourist spots, you never know quite what to expect. So, when we stopped in the UNESCO World Heritage city of Lunenbert (Nova Scotia) I wasn't certain what would come up on the meal-0-matic. Stopping in one of the
souvenir shops, we were pointed in the direction of the Salt Shaker Deli.

A few minutes walk brought us there and luckily, there was a table for seven available!

Well, in looking over the menu, there were local Indian Point mussels, so I had to have some. Especially when saw there was a special, "Pint and a Pound" - pint of draft beer and a pound of mussels. The only trouble was there were so many options:

• Provenqal
• Steamed in White Wine
• Propeller Honey Wheat Beer
• Propeller Porter Beer
• Roasted Garlic & Cream
• Thai Coconut Curry
• Spicy Tomato & Harissa
• Portugese Style with Sausage
• Creamy Madras Curry

Many of the options were tempting, but I stuck with the basic white wine option. Excellent mussels and just the right amount. Highly recommended.

A feew days later, on a boat cruise, I got to see the mussel beds in Mahone Bay:
