OMG... you'll think you've died and gone to heaven! You can't do Osborne Village without some sweets from the iconic Baked Expectations. Their "shmoo torte" - a Winnipeg specialty that involves angel food cake layered with pecans and a ridiculous amount of whip cream and caramel sauce - is a thing of legend, and a must for any visiting culinary tourist. Diverse menu, great food, but they are best known for their desserts! (Burgers are pretty fantastic too!)

Segovia Tapas Bar is frequently cited by both locals and national media alike as Winnipeg's best restaurant. Chef Adam Donnelly's tight, often-changing menu brings huge flavours with items like lamb dumplings, croquetas, and tuna tostadas, while mainstays like the jamón Ibérico and the tres leches cake for dessert are always killer. The cocktails are also great, including a gin and tonic made with lime sorbet that is ideal for summer sipping on their gorgeous little patio.

This is the closest Costco to our BnB but we prefer the McGillivray location for its size, parking and overall shopping experience. (listed here as well).
