The Great Viking Feast - St. Anthony, Newfoundland - The Great Viking Feast, offered seasonally from June until late September, is one part theatre and one part culinary adventure. First, guests feast like (vi)kings, dining on everything from cod tongues and salt capelin to moose stew and rhubarb crumb cake. Then, they're treated to an entertaining depiction of a viking court of law where they get the chance to put their fellow diners on trial. If vikings aren't your thing, be sure to check out sister restaurant, Lightkeepers Cafe, located next door—it's a great place to see icebergs and whales and watch fishing boats come in and out of the harbour.

Bullocks Bistro - Yellowknife, Northwest Territories - This legendary shack, brimful of bumper stickers, happy diners, diners' graffiti, and mix-and-match furniture, is a sassy, humorous place specializing in huge portions of fish. It comes pan-fried, grilled or deep-fried with chips, salad and a secret homemade sauce. Slabs of grilled Arctic char are superb, as is the blue-cheese dressing. Stews are the focus at lunchtime.

Wild Caraway - Advocate Harbour, Nova Scotia - People travel from all over Nova Scotia to visit Wild Caraway. It's not hard to see why. This coastal cafe offers seasonal, hyper-local food—using many foraged ingredients—and beautiful views of the driftwood-strewn beach of Advocate Harbour, a small protected fishing harbour opening on the Bay of Fundy. Open seasonally from May to November, Wild Caraway serves up some of the best food in the province, including dishes like seaweed popcorn, sunchoke chips, sumac pork crackling and weir-caught mackerel tartare with applewood smoked sour cream, corn lilies and sweet cicely. Make sure to plan your visit around their annual wild foraging dinner, where they gather wild produce to create a tasting menu inspired by nature. Have you dined at this restaurant?

Le Petit Chef - Toronto, Ontario - Special thanks to @Harriet56 for turning me onto this little charmer! While the restaurant itself is not unique to only this area, he is very unique as the world's smallest chef standing about 2 1/2-inches tall. Le Petit Chef is an immersive, 3D visual dining experience, in which an animated chef cooks your meals on your plate. From appetizers to dessert, guests are transported from a snowy landscape to a tropical island, all while staying seated at their table. Enjoy a show and dinner at the same time!
