Welcome?

yes. I grew up there.

Cafe Brio is one of the best restaurants in the city. Its expensive (not terrible) but very worth it for a special meal.
The Oak Bay Marina restaurant is also very very nice and is right on the water.

Dont go to Vista18. Its not worth it. The views are nice, the food is terrible.

For breakfast, go to either Floyd's, Jonny's Cafe, or the Blue Fox.

there's tons of other options.. just depends on your budget.




Go home Subaru. You're drunk.

The Wharfside is a good seafood restaurant (at least when I went in 2002) and my favourite was Maude Hunter's, a burger and microbrew place. It's been a while since I've been there, so maybe someone else can say whether they're still up to snuff.

if the weather is nice, hit up the Canoe Club downtown.

Warfside has kinda gone downhill a bit... but its still not bad.... its gotten really touristy.

Cafe Brio is delish.  Would Red Fish Blue Fish be open this time of the year?

Blue Fox is good for brekkie as well, portion sizes are huge.  Get there early else you'll be lining up.
They're going to park their car over there. You're going to park your car over here. Get it?
