1. National Gallery of Canada
"Count on a creative and artistic triumphant return of self after your visit."
The National Gallery of Canada is housed in an alluring, modern structure of glass and concrete. If you are worried about finding it, fret not, as it's beauty will capture…More »
2. Canada Aviation and Space Museum
In a city full of museums, this is easily my favourite. If you plan on visiting, you MUST take the guided tour. Admittedly, I grew up wishing to be a Boeing 747 pilot.
Are you feeling adventurous? Wondering what its like to fly in a vintage aircraft?…More »
3. Jacques-Cartier Park
"So much fun and frolic during Winterlude"
The low ranking and lack of reviews confirms my belief. Ottawa does not know about the Snowflake Kingdom at Jacques-Cartier Park. I almost don't want to promote it too much, because I think if more people…More »
4. Milestones
This was my first visit to Milestones, the second for my wife. The building is very new, and it is in a great location. It is located across the street from Rideau Centre downtown, on the corner of Rideau Street and Sussex/Colonel By/Mackenzie. The…More »
5. Keg Restaurant
Classy restaurant, odd location next to Tim Hortons"
This was our first visit to the Keg. The building is still relatively new, and it's design has always caught my eye. Apparently, the Keg is known for buying historic manors and turning them into…More »
6. Vittoria Trattoria
Another upscale restaurant in a seemingly odd location
This was our first visit to Vittoria Trattoria. The family and I were treated to Thanksgiving dinner with my parents. I was very excited to try the place out, as I knew of their downtown location…More »
7. The Grand Pizzeria
My experience was the furthest you can get from grand. If I could give a ZERO rating, I would.
This was my first visit to The Grand Pizzeria & Bar. The family was away and I went downtown for a nice meal, on a warm summer evening. I was very eager to…More »
8. Zen Kitchen
This was my first visit to ZenKitchen. This visit was out of the ordinary, as volunteers of the local MP's campaign were treated to a buffet dinner. I was very excited to try the place out, as I enjoy trendy modern eateries. I knew nothing about the…More »
9. BeaverTails Pastry
First of all, know this: No beavers were harmed in the process of making quintessential Ottawa fare. Beavertails grew from Ottawa lore, to quickly become a significant addition to Canadiana.
BeaverTails is a Canadian-based franchise that began humbly…More »
10. The Daily Grind
Just recently stopped by to say hello to my friend, left with an addiction to their Mexican hot chocolate!
11. Marcello's Catering
Marcello's is a wonderful deli in Little Italy. I would have never guessed it is a franchise. How I wish Marcello's would take over for the cafeteria's in Tunney's Pasture!
This has become my destination of choice for breakfast. I love their fresh…More »
12. Canadian Museum of Civilization
In a city full of museums, this is easily the best destination for families with children. If you plan on visiting, plan for the bulk of the visit taking place in the Canadian Children's Museum. It has always been a huge hit with our kids, as well as…More »
