This place is UNREAL! Don't go if you're on a diet. It's a canadian-style cafe which does the best poutine this side of the Atlantic. Based in a smal shipping container down by the marina. Well worth a visit.

If you're a keen photographer then you've got to have a walk down here and get a pic of the bridges. Gorgeous cobbled streets and a lovely feel about this place.
