Tourism Winnipeg

Culinary The Toronto Star recently remarked that Winnipeg's "brag-worthy food scene mixes hipster, local, aboriginal, Jewish and French with assorted multicultural eats," which pretty much nails it. We're a city with more than 1,100 restaurants where over 100 languages are spoken, so it should come as no surprise that a world of flavours is represented by our restaurants. In the last five years or so the city has really come into its own as a celebrated culinary destination with numerous chef-owned restaurants, third wave coffee shops, craft cocktail bars and breweries, bakeries and pop-up events. Our epicurean history is also studded with Jewish delicatessens, hole in the wall ethnic eateries, and white tablecloth fine dining establishments, many of the standard bearers of which persist today. We cover almost every aspect of this culinary scene on PegCityGrub.com, our culinary guide that contains chef profiles, culinary news, and categorical restaurant reviews on only the best restaurants in the city. On top of that, below we've also supplied you with a "best of" in regards to our most sought-after culinary categories. Cafés – Because the third wave coffee phenomenon hit Winnipeg like a tsunami, we now take our beans seriously. Every Winnipeg neighbourhood has a trendy designed coffee shop where hip staff will brew you the perfect cup. Here are some of our favs: • Parlour (468 Main Street) • Fools + Horses (379 Broadway) • Forth (171 McDermot Avenue) • Thom Bargen Coffee & Tea (250 Kennedy Street & 64 Sherbrook Street) • Café Postal (202 Provencher Boulevard) Breakfast and Brunch – Eggs, bacon and toast are so 2005. These spots all specialize in taking brunch to the next level with excellent egg dishes, craft ingredients and great coffee to boot: • Clementine (123 Princess Street) • Tallest Poppy (103 Sherbrook Street) • Falafel Place (1101 Corydon Avenue) • Miss Browns (288 William Avenue) • Marion Street Eatery (393 Marion Street) www.tourismwinnipeg.com 41 WINNIPEG ITINERARIES Forth: Josh Dookhie Fried Chicken Toast at Clementine: Dan Clapson Tallest Poppy
