Thing to Do
Rideau Falls

Ottawa, ON K1A
Canada
+1 613 237 5150(Tourist Information)
Notes
Located across from Ottawa City Hall on Sussex Drive, these pretty falls mark the end of the Rideau River's journey from the St. Lawerence River. Although not as spectacular as Hog's Back Falls, the Rideau Falls are still picturesque in their own right, especially when they are shimmering lit up at night. The falls are located in Rideau Falls Park, within walking distance of 24 Sussex Drive and Rideau Hall.

During the summer months, the mall is buzzing with activity, especially during the lunch hour when hundreds of public servants fill the many restaurants and outdoor cafes.

Ottawa, ON K1S

+1 613 283 5170
Notes
Built between 1827 and 1832 without the aid of power machinery, the Canal is one of Ottawa's oldest landmarks; it runs from the Ottawa River near Parliament Hill to Hog's Back Falls on the south end of the city. During the summer a wide range of vessels, including tour boats, glide along the waterway, while people in-line skate, jog or stroll on the canal's picturesque banks. During the winter, the canal is transformed into the "World's Longest Skating Rink," and is a hub of activity during Ottawa's Winterlude festival.

Ben-Ben Restaurant

Notes
One of Ottawa's best kept secrets, this small, unassuming restaurant has been a favourite of Ottawa's Asian community for years. The Hot and Sour Soup is arguably the best in the city, as are the Singapore noodles. In addition to the main menu, there are also a number of exotic daily specials, such as Fresh Lamb with dry bean curd in spicy salt (CAD10.95) and Deep-Fried Cung Fish in barbecue sauce (CAD8.95). Most dishes on the main menu range in price from CAD5.95-10.95.

Ottawa, ON K1S
Canada

Notes
Long and narrow, this small, warmly lit restaurant in the heart of the Glebe features a jumbled Indian decor and candles on the tables. The family-run restaurant features a daily luncheon and Sunday brunch buffet, and an à la carte dinner menu of traditional dishes from the northeastern region of India. The extensive and flavourful menu also includes a number of combination platters and dishes perfect for sharing and sampling. On weekends, the restaurant is packed with well-dressed couples and groups of all ages.
