Secret Ottawa: The Unique Guidebook to Ottawa s Hidden Sites, Sounds, & Tastes

Takes you behind the scenes of the official tourist sites—Parliament Hill, the Rideau Canal, the National Gallery of Canada—and into the places only locals know. From restaurants where Cabinet ministers do lunch to Canada’s only Cordon Bleu cooking school, from Elvis Lives Lane to a bog carpeted with Arctic wildflowers, and from outlet shops for lingerie to dim wine cellars awash in live jazz, this guidebook shows you how to dig under the government-approved surface to find the city other tourists—and many residents—miss.
