EATING AND DRINKING
A cool coffee house
Freshly roasted espresso,
locally made baked goods
and Manitoba’s first on-tap
wine system—what’s not to
love about Fools & Horses?
The coffee house
and wine bar on
Winnipeg’s bustling
Broadway serves
homegrown goodies
like Jonnies Sticky
Buns and Flora and
Farmer jam, plus
fare made from
local organic produce. Wash it down
with a macchiato
in the a.m., or wait
until afternoon
when the team
opens the taps for
a pint of beer or
glass of vino.

Undercover dining
Dubbed “Winnipeg’s most
hidden restaurant,” Sous
Sol is proof that good
things come to those who
look. To find this eclectic
French bistro, keep your
eye out for an underground
door reading Vandelay
Industries (a reference
Seinfeld fans will surely
recognize). Once inside,
revel in the Parisian salon
setting as you feast on chef
Mike Robins’ new twists on
traditional French fare.

and tells the fictional
story of a journalist who

revolt. Some 20 years later,
he tries to reunite with the

subject of his photo, only
to discover the poignant
story behind the tank faceoff. British playwright Lucy
Kirkwood debuted the
tale in London to critical
acclaim in 2013. The story
remains relevant today as it
examines the human toll of
political upheaval.
