Drinking, Food & Dining In Victoria BC

Posted by Tom Westley on

While it might not have the most restaurants per capita in Canada (that one goes to Montreal), Greater Victoria may very well be second — or the very least in the top five. Visitors and locals alike can experience tastes from around the world in a variety of forms, all in one picturesque city: Food trucks, patisseries, floating restaurants, high tea, farmers markets, bubble tea bars, dining and drink festivals, and even Canada's very first brewpub. Covering every local culinary treasure is impossible, but there are a few staples that are always worth mentioning. Read on for our list of Greater Victoria's best food markets, dining festivals, and restaurant events:

May Events in Victoria – Book Your Pad Now!

Posted by Tom Westley on

Well, it looks like we're finally on the home stretch! The siding is almost finished and what a difference, it looks great (thanks to Sawyer Custom Carpentry)! Next for the exterior is to finish various small details, downspouts, etc. The upstairs is coming along slowly but surely. The patio slabs have been laid for both balconies, and the glass contractors should be installing the glass railings in the next week or two. I can’t wait to sit out there with a cold beer watching the world go by — after work, obviously. We also had our fabulous landscape designer in this week figuring out what beautiful (deer-proof) indigenous plants and flowers to place around the base of the welcoming poles. All in all, we're well on our way to being in fantastic shape for the upcoming peak season. In fact, we're already taking pad bookings for the spring and summer, so if you were eyeing a lot now is the time to grab it! To offer some extra incentive, we've collected a peek of what you can expect to find during the refreshing days of May in Victoria:

As of today the concrete pads are all poured, pedestals are in, services to each pad are complete. BC Hydro have finally agreed to hook us up to mains power on Tuesday next week! Much of the sod has been laid and paving of the entrance driveway and perimeter road in the park is underway for completion today. The stone sitting wall is constructed around the perimeter and it looks fantastic! There are lots of little jobs, signs, lamp-posts, security cameras and Wi-Fi to get hooked up but this week will mark the end of the major construction activities.
