The Tides Restaurant is located at Parkland Village Inn in Alma, New Brunswick. In 2020 & 2021 I felt bad for all the business owners in Alma and hoped they would survive the challenges of the pandemic. I imagined everyone in town was eager for all the tourists to come back and spend money in this lovely little coastal village. In July 2022 Alma was so loaded with tourists, we went to two restaurants for a late supper on a very hot summer night and they turned us away; no more customers wanted that day! Their kitchens were backlogged, servers were run ragged. Our third attempt was at Tides Restaurant where they greeted us with a smile and sat us down immediately.

Kozy Resto Bar is located in the downtown core of Grand Falls, New Brunswick. It is about a 10 minute walk from the falls - those falls are a must-see if you are coming for a visit.

We thought, "This is our people!", and took a seat. Life is too short to pass up a fun opportunity like that. We looked at the menu and our decision was made as soon as we saw the nachos. What a fun place to do some nacho research and put Grand Falls on my blog!  Kozy Resto Bar  Large Nachos with Beef - July 2022  Distribution of Toppings The top looked like a work of art and it was very tasty. However, there were plenty of plain chips on the bottom layer. There was an average amount of cheese to go with the chips to make it an average rating for the chip to cheese ratio.
