AllseeingEye posted topic Hong Kong House

lpoutine,

AllseeingEye has just posted a new topic entitled "Hong Kong House" in forum "Restaurant & Eatery Reviews".

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not Victoria but...meh....everyone from here eventually and inevitably hoofs it up to and through Nanaimo which is where I was yesterday and overnight. Had never had much success finding decent Chinese in town but I have to say HKH is excellent for what it is; what it is as it turns out is an immensely popular, very spacious and busy buffet style Chinese place in the north end of town, near and just behind the Country Club Centre.

Staff is super efficient and polite and the buffet options are very plentiful (you can obviously order off the menu if you prefer) and everything I tried I enjoyed very much. Special shout out to the szechuan green beans/shrimp . Definitely a 'recommend' if you're in town and have a hankering for some tasty Chinese that won't bankrupt you -

A rendering of Aryze Development's 91-unit, 10-storey apartment proposal for 1702 Fisgard Street in Victoria's North Park neighbourhood. The project will incorporate The Abbey apartments, a two-storey heritage building dating back to 1911, as part of its lower levels. The Abbey was developed as a commercial building on Quadra Street at Fisgard Street and was subsequently converted into 15 rental suites.

Proposed 10-storey Quadra Street rental tower will incorporate 111-year-old North Park heritage asset

Sorry moderators, I will let you fix the title.

This is a big project. It's a good idea. Except the subsidized component. But that's OK.

Victoria Watcher posted topic Sidney Museum

lpoutine,

Victoria Watcher has just posted a new topic entitled "Sidney Museum" in forum "Arts, Culture and Entertainment".

----------------------------------------------------------------------
A popular exhibition is returning to the Sidney Museum.
The 2022 edition of the annual LEGO Exhibition is opening on Jan. 2, running until March 31 with timed admission bookable through the museum's website.
The exhibition, returning for its 16th year, features hundreds of LEGO building models. It first started when the museum's former executive director Peter Garnham displayed sets he and his two sons, Jason and David, had built over the years.
In years past, before the COVID-19 pandemic, the exhibition would draw well over 10,000 people.
The 2021 edition of the event, which ran for five months, drew almost 3,600 guests, according to the 2021 annual report of the Sidney Museum and Archives Society. The museum also created videos on Facebook Live to give viewers a closer look at some of the displayed LEGO sets.
