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.

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!
