This event started 10 years ago with the goal of getting people together around food, supporting our local restaurants and giving back to Feed Nova Scotia. This year we were able to connect with 10 amazing partners who know just how important these things are for everyone in our community. This year’s partners helped to support boosting restaurants up after the most challenging time in recent memory. They’re the backbone of this event and we sincerely appreciate all of their support.

During Halifax Burger Bash, and all year long, here are a few tips to be on your burger bash best behaviour!

• Treat all restaurant staff with respect. They’re working hard so you can have a burgeriffic good time. Our best tip is to leave a tip!

• Be patient, if there is a line at a restaurant leave your name with staff enjoy the outdoors or head to the next spot on your list!

• Tag us in photos @hfxburgerbash, And tag the restaurant too, we all want to feel the love!

• Restrictions have been lifted province wide, however if a restaurant has certain safety measures in place respect those! Everyone is doing their best to keep their staff and customers staff and comfortable! 

• Be Kind. It’s really that simple.

Whether your enjoying dine in or take out we cant wait to see the our city supporting restaurants from Dartmouth to Beaver Bank to Peggy’s Cove!

Bring a Burger Bash Budget

It may sound simple, but “… a lot of times people don’t have a firm grasp on where their money is going.” Brad states. The golden rule coming from Assante is to “plan, update and stick to a budget.” 

Budgeting can sound like an arduous task, but there are tools there to help. Brad recommends using budgeting software or even downloading a budget app on your phone!

The Triple B (Building Burger Balance)

We all like to treat ourselves, think of the classic coffee conundrum, to buy or make it home! When it comes to finances, “A lot of us know our big things, like a mortgage, car payments, phone bill, etc. But for some, knowing where the “small” stuff goes makes a difference”. 

Brad notes that “for some people fun events that come with a cost become a matter of ‘or’ and not ‘and’. For the ‘or’s’ reading, being conscious of the small things will be crucial”. Making coffee and lunch at home during the bash may help to ensure you can take in these once-a-year creations!

In case it doesn’t go without saying, every body is a burger body. These tips are here to help the boldest of burger bashers prepare for 10 jam-packed days of burgers. Take what feels good for your body and leave what doesn’t serve you. Burger Bash is a judgment free zone. We want to break burger barriers, not add them.

LEGS 

Starting with our foundation, the legs help many of us get from one burger to the next. With our burgers spreading across corners of the city, preparing our legs can help us take in more burgers and cut out travel time. 

Prior to the bash, map your route and walk the distance. Get your finest, functional footwear at the ready to make sure it’s a comfy commute. 

Shea Lenehan suggests getting in some squats to help take on some of the actual uphill battles that are present in downtown Halifax. Make lunchtime, lunge time to boost your strength because these downtown hills aren’t getting any flatter!

CORE

Trainer Will Silver says you can loosen up your core by touching your toes or incorporating a twist into your pre-burger game plan. Loosening up your core will help prep your burger belly and prime for some hearty burgers and belly laughs with your burger buddies. 

ARMS 

Ahhh, the arms. The vessel that brings the burg from plate to face.  Bolstering your prep routine with some Burger Bash bicep curls will help buff your burger biceps for the bulkiest of burgs and make that motion so familiar you’ll set your mind on autopilot and let your body do the rest. Check out Andrew Taylor for the best burger form.

MIND 

Arguably, the most important muscle to get in shape, the mind. With over 130 listings to choose from, you’ll need a clear mind to decide which burger to try next. 

Go for a walk, laugh with friends or indulge in your favourite pastime to find your state of burger bliss. This Burger Bash we want to keep our minds clear and our bellies full.
