Afghan food platters that are huge and beautiful and tasty! Super reasonable prices for the quality of food. Highly recommend the lamb. You can either sit at a table, or in the Afghan room, on the floor with cushions and low tables.

A little pricey but fantastic local cuisine. Great for date night. And then head next door to Grapes and Soda for a night cap afterwards.

There are a few other dosa joints in the neighbourhood, but none are as good as this one. I recommend the palak lamb dosa, or the okra lamb. The idly are a great starter, and a salty lassi to drink!

Your neighbour (on the other half of the duplex, Maria) owns this joint. Opened in the pandemic she makes real, homemade, pasta. Grab some to-go with sauce. You won't regret it. And while you're walking have some of her famous gelato.

If you go in here for a coffee, you'll come out with a box of pastries both savoury and sweet because you weren't able to decide which one you wanted and then ended up buying them all. Just saying. Be careful - this place is a glorious trap!

In the summer there are lots of people in their birthday suits. The rest of the year it's a beautiful place to go down (many stairs) and gaze out across the Pacific ocean.

Arts & Culture

Totem poles - expansive history of west coast First Nations people, in a building designed by local and renowned architect Arthur Erickson, atop a cliff that faces the great Pacific ocean. Magical place. Head down to wreck beach after if you feel like descending and then climbing thousands of stairs in the forest. Careful though as it's a nude beach!
