Victoria’s local food scene earns international acclaim

KEVIN LIGHT PHOTOT

B Y J E N N I F E R B LY T H

he Greater Victoria food scene has blossomed over the last few
decades, as the city welcomed both a new appreciation for its own
local bounty and for the international flavours close to the heartsof new residents hailing from across the globe.
And locals aren’t the only ones noticing this transition.
Among a variety of accolades showered on the British Columbia
capital this year, the prestigious Conde Naste 2023 Readers’ Choice
Awards ranked Victoria No. 8 “Best Cities for Food in the World.” Yes,in the world. There we are, sandwiched (if you’ll pardon the pun) rightbetween Rome, Italy, and Melbourne, Australia.
According to the authors, Victoria is “fast becoming a tasty
destination thanks to its fascinating mix of influences and dedication tofarm-to-table produce. You can find almost every cuisine here, all cooked
to a very high standard. There are oyster bars, Tokyo-style ramen, sushi,

Bánh mì, reinvented fish and chips, tapas and handmade pasta in one
glorious port city ready to feed everyone who visits.”
No surprise that with these kinds of accolades, food also factoredprominently in Victoria’s win for Best Small City in the World, and – wehave to think – in our kudos as No. 3 Friendliest City across the globe.
After all, how could you not be friendly and welcoming with so muchgood food on your doorstep!
“It’s an honour and a testament to this incredible city that travellers toVictoria are picking up on what we as locals and as an organization know
makes this destination stand out – from the rich culture and history to
the incredible hyper-local cuisine,” said Paul Nursey, CEO of Destination
Greater Victoria. “To be amongst some of the leading destinations in theworld furthers our dedication to providing memorable and once-in-alifetime experiences that are unique to Victoria.”

FOOD

So just what makes Victoria’s food scene so
special? In many ways, the city itself is the staringredient.
Not only is Victoria compact and walkable– meaning it’s easy to explore its many
offerings – but the ocean is, quite literally, on
our doorstep, with forest and farms just a shortdrive away.
Diners can savour fresh-caught seafoodfrom the waterfront patio at LURE or dockside
at Red Fish Blue Fish while soaking in viewsof the Inner Harbour – our corner of the Salish
Sea.
The giant sequoia on the legislature lawnhints at the lush forest nearby – home to adelicious array of earthy, wild mushrooms ideal
in risotto or pasta.
Stroll north toward the colourful streetsof Chinatown and discover internationaldelights that just keep coming. Not only will
you find delicious dim sum at Don Mee andsucculent char-siu, or barbecued pork, at Loy
Sing butcher shop – North America’s oldest
continuously run Chinese business – you’ll alsofind modern German fare at Eva Schnitzelhaus
and delicious Indian cuisine at Varsha.
“We’re starting to get a really diverse foodscene – it’s a lot of what we talk about on
our tours,” says Bonnie Todd, self-described“food nerd” and owner of Off the Eaten Track
Food Tours.
While people still talk about the British
influence in Victoria, including the stellar
Afternoon Tea at the Fairmont Empress,
Pendray House and the Butchart Gardens, forexample, you’re just as likely to hear about themouthwatering Filipino, Korean or Thai cuisine
you enjoyed.
Walking visitors through the historic streetsof Old Town and Canada’s first Chinatown,
people are often surprised by the variety ofcultures reflected, adds Andy Olson, who
explores both his culinary favourites and thecity’s rich history in his A Taste of Victoria
Food Tours.
People from the southern U.S. will marvel at
the quality of our biscuits, while guests delightin the Ukrainian-style pierogies. “We havepeople from all over the world who are using
local products to put together traditional foods
in a new way,” he says.

Farm-fresh ingredientsSERVINGSUSTAINABILITY
Most activities in Victoria are viewed throughthe lens of sustainability, and the food scene is
no different, Olson says, noting it’s something
local diners have come to expect and insist on.
From compostable take-out packaging to local
ingredients, those “green” decisions become
part of a sound business model, not simply an
extra cost.
The environmental benefits are also topof-mind for many visitors, whether they’ve
heard about Victoria’s farm-to-table focus
or perhaps wonder how Destination Greater
Victoria’s biosphere certification translates tothe region’s restaurants.
Diners appreciate this taste of a city they
won’t find anywhere else, and it doesn’t hurtthat fresh, local ingredients simply taste
better, too!

The result is a restaurant communitythat locals and visitors alike can feel goodabout supporting.
Chefs, bakers, brewers and otherpurveyors often work to infuse their recipes
with local ingredients for a unique twist on afamiliar favourite.
Again, our unique location helps: “We havea year-round growing season that allows us todo some things you can’t do in the rest of thecountry,” Olson notes.
Restaurants like 10 Acres, in downtown
Victoria and at the Pier in Sidney, use
ingredients grown and raised on their own
farm. Others have forged farm-to-fork
relationships for Island-raised chicken, lamband sustainably caught seafood that pair
perfectly with Island wines or ciders craftedwith fruit grown right here.
“We’re fortunate to be in a place where we
can grow things year-round,” Todd reflects.

MEET THE
STAR INGREDIENTFOOD

COMPETITION &COLLABORATIONSERVED HAND-IN-HAND
As one the most competitive restaurantmarkets in North America, restaurants need to
be good to survive and to stand out.
These are “local places serving local
products – family run and family owned
with a lot of passion. People are pouring theirheart and soul into their food,” Olson says,
noting an added benefit to that is the morecasual nature of the Victoria food scene –while the food is often remarkable, it’s served
without pretension.
For him, and many others, the draw is
the people and their passions as much as theamazing food. “I’ve become friends with allthese people since I started my tours and whena new restaurant opens it’s an opportunity for a
new friendship.”Of particular note for Todd “is the sheer
amount of bakeries that have made a markon our city,” she says. “Our bakery scene
is something we should be proud of andreally celebrate.”(BAKERY) ALEXIA FOSTER; (FOOD) GRAZIELA PORTELA PHOTOGRAPHY

Locally inspired delights from Wind Cries Mary

Sweet treats at the Dutch Bakery

From long-standing family businesses likethe Dutch Bakery – a favourite among locals
since 1956 for its sweets and savouries – tocelebrated “newcomers” like The Art of Slow
Food, embracing Old World traditions in its
organic, locally sourced and gluten-free bakery
and café, the city’s bakery scene is rich, indeed.
(As an added benefit, those bakery delights,
paired with a few ingredients from our specialty
delis and food shops, mean you needn't commit
to a full fine dining meal to get something
delicious, local and unique to this place – andsomething easily enjoyed on a waterfront
picnic or in a quiet corner of beautiful Beacon
Hill Park).
No matter the theme of the restaurant,
diner, café or bakery, the sheer volume of small,independent restaurants in a relatively compact
area makes it easy for visitors to capture thereal flavour of the city.
“A lot of people are happy to see how
many small businesses there are in downtown
Victoria – while there’s a handful of chain
brands, it really is populated with small
businesses, especially in the downtown
core,” Todd says, noting that focus on small,independent and local also bodes well
for a spirit of collaboration among chefs,
restaurateurs and brewers, young entrepreneurs
who are able to come here, open up in the
downtown core and create something special.

by bike, foot, bus or car. Come explore!

INNER HARBOUR
The heart of Victoria, the Inner Harbour is often where the action is. In
generations past, it was where the Lekwungen-speaking people would
gather, trade, celebrate and welcome guests to their community. Today,
it remains a hive of activity – the jumping off point for many walking,carriage or bus tours, not to mention paddling, whale and wildlife
watching, boat cruises and other adventures.
On the water, below the stately Fairmont Empress Hotel, thecauseway is a popular spot for people-watching or just watching the

OFF THE EATEN TRACK

A

distinctive delight of Victoria is its compact design, a feature thatmakes it easy to explore – quickly or leisurely, depending on
your inclination or timeframe. Yet that compact nature disguises
a depth of local culture and history that deserves to be explored.
No wonder that after that first visit, guests quickly begin planningtheir return!
So, how best to explore the Garden City and British Columbia’s
capital? If you think of the city like a bike wheel, at the hub is the Inner
Harbour, bustling with activity and for many, the jumping-off point foradventure.
Radiating from the harbour are spokes, each guiding you to neighbourhoods waiting to be discovered – James Bay to the southwest, CookStreet Village, Fairfield and Rockland to the east, Saanich to the north,and VicWest and Esquimalt to the west. Follow those spokes a little
farther and you’ll discover unique communities like Oak Bay, the Saanich

SIGHTSboats come and go. Around the corner, Ship
Point hosts many of the region’s fave festivals,
including the Swiftsure International Yacht
Race in May, the Victoria International Jazz
Fest in June and August’s Victoria Dragon
Boat Festival.
Have questions or need a little inspiration
for your Victoria vacay? Stop by the Destination
Greater Victoria Visitor Centre, beneath theclock at the harbour!
From the harbour, explore some of theregion’s oldest streets, where you’ll find anabundance of local, independent shops
and boutiques, renowned art galleries andrestaurants, not to mention family-friendly
attractions like Miniature World, the Maritime
Museum of BC and the Victoria Bug Zoo.

A block over, on Fisgard Street, walk beneaththe towering Gate of Harmonious Interest into
Chinatown, and as you browse the colourfulstorefronts and unique eateries, watch for Dragon
Alley and Fan Tan Alley – Instagram-worthy
photo spots, but both also lead to some fantastic
bakeries, boutiques and one-of-a kind treasures.
Old Town is also a hub for Victoria’s
celebrated craft beer scene, with a variety of
local breweries and destinations within just a few
blocks. Dance the night away at the area’s clubs
and pubs, discover a new favourite musician, or
take in a comedy night – it’s all right here.

HIDDEN GEM: Venture down
Canada’s narrowest street, Fan Tan Alley, to
the Chinese Canadian Museum’s Victoria
location, located on the ground floor of
the historic Hoy Sun Association building.
Here, in addition to rotating exhibits, you
can explore the stories of some of the manyfamilies who’ve called this community homein the years since the mid-19th century.
Artwork adds to Chinatown’s colourfulstreetscape, including a brand new, 32-foot-tallmural on Government Street by Carolyn Wong.

HIDDEN GEM: While the front
lawn and Rattenbury-designed Parliament
Buildings are a significant feature of theharbour area, venture beside and behindthe buildings for a different perspective,
including a lovely rose garden.
Must-do for book lovers: Three
wonderfully unique book shops are located juststeps from the Inner Harbour. Munro’s Books is
an architectural treasure – a heritage building
housing an exceptional selection of books amid
stained glass windows, works by artist Carole
Sabiston, and a 24-foot coffered ceiling. Bastion
Books, in historic Bastion Square, stocks both
vintage and contemporary titles – relax in their
comfy chairs and children’s nook and browse
your new-found treasures. Nearby, boasting
18,000-square-feet of new and used titles,
Russell Books is Canada’s largest independentbookstore.
Fun fact: The Russell team made history in2019 by breaking the Guinness World Record
for the tallest tower of Guinness World Records

The Johnson Street Bridge stretches fromthe bottom of historic Johnson Street to thecommunity of VicWest, rising when needed
to grant access to vessels navigating between
Victoria’s Inner and the Upper harbours.
The sleek, curving lines of this modern
masterpiece glow blue in the evening – a nod
to its longstanding predecessor’s blue-painted
steel girders.
