The crew at WSG and Fototrips will be steering clear of the 2010 winter Olympics. It's not that we are protesting or anything, it's just that we had a choice. Vancouver or San Jaun Peurto Rico. Hmmm. That was a tough one. Having said that, I can only guess what visitors are going to experience with the array of choices for dining and eating out. I am truly hoping local operators won't be gouging our global tourists.
So we were thinking. If someone came up to me on the street and said, where can I go for a great atmosphere, second to none in terms of service and quality of food, where would that be?
Hey, we're not rich with deep pockets, so we like budget conscious decisions when it comes down to where to eat too. And of course, value for our buck.
In Richmond. Not far from the skating oval, you will find a quaint little Irish Pub called O'Hares. Situated on the corner of Railway and Steveston Highway. About 4 kilometere's west from Highway 99, but still in the middle of the action. Why do we like it there? It's where you find the locals. They don't advertise, cause they don't have to. It's always busy. Lots on tap, fresh pub style food, pleasant atmosphere and the best service you'll find anywhere. They're doing something right, the staff hasn't changed in 15+ years. And they never forget a face.
During your stop in the neighborhood, you could also swing by historic Steveston just a few blocks away and see one of the first commercial fishing settlements on the west coast. Steeped in history. shops, more eating and more to see.
On your way to Olympic events in Richmond or just taking in the sites, this is a great pick. Not endorsed by, related to or a part of, in anywhich way with the Olympics, makes it an even higher priority for us. Bottoms up!
