Experience overview
Embark on a flavorful journey through Victoria's vibrant neighborhoods, uncovering hidden foodie gems along the way! We start strong at Maiiz Nixtamal, an award-winning Mexican gem where Michelin-starred Chef Israel Molina elevates tacos with his signature house-made tortillas. This isn't just a taco--it's a culinary masterpiece! Embark on a culinary journey through the vibrant heart of Chinatown, exploring hidden gems such as Pinhalla Pinball Pizzeria, Cafe Malabar, and the charming Friends & Family Bakery. Feel the pulse of culture and history as you stroll down Canada's narrowest street, the legendary Fan Tan Alley. Next, it's time to savor some deliciously crispy Thai-style dumplings from the well-known Dumpling Drop before exploring Old Town, where gorgeous brick buildings and cobblestone streets evoke memories of the past. The renowned Green Cuisine is our next stop; since the 1990s, Victoria has loved their homemade tempeh! At one of the greatest craft breweries in the city, Whistle Buoy Brewing, we finally cap off our excursion with a well-earned drink. We toast to an amazing day filled with robust flavors, hidden gems, and gourmet fun while sipping on a locally made beer or indulging on a refreshing artisanal soda!
