Vietnam Palace India Palace Little Italy Preston street extends a dozen blocks from picturesque Dow's Lake to Labreton Flats and the Ottawa River. Places of business are interspersed with quaint little houses and duplexes.
People are friendly.
And you are virtually guaranteed a memorable meal at any restaurant you choose. There was a large influx of Italian immigrants to this area after the second world war, and into the 1950's, new Canadians joining their compatriots who preceded them in the early part of the century. They brought their culture with them. Including their love of fine food. The chef is from southern Italy, but the kitchen offers dishes from the north as well.
