Drive to Windsor you can get them everywhere.
Halifax style?
What constitutes Halifax style exacrly, besides no lettuce. Windsor is an uncultured armpit wreck of a city, but they have some of the best food compared to rest of Canada. My assumption is that for a very long time Windsor was the auto mecca with highpay and cheapest housing which led to lots of disposable income and families eating dinner out most days of the week, it grew tons of competition to be the best (insert food type) restaurant. There aren't a lot of Indian places, but if you want Italian, Greek, Thai Jamaican, Lebanese, amazing Pizza, Donairs, Gyros etc (I'm sure I'm missing a ton of its all there. They used to have a Festival Epicure so you could sample from all nations.
Best I found in Ontario was a schwarma.
Shawarma is superior to donair. Anyone who thinks otherwise is still feeling the after effects of the Halifax Explosion and needs immediate medical attention.
